Hi. I have a 1983 Series 3 Lightweight. When the speedo cable is inserted into the gearbox I can just spin the cable around in the hole so its looks like the speedo drive is faulty. Any ideas on what could be wrong?
Thanks.

Out put flange loose and not gripping the drive for speedo or width of speedo cable end two small.
^^ this one, had the same thing on my series 3, quick tightening up on the output flange and it then worked. The vehicle even came with a new genuine speedo pinion because "that was the problem". it is still sat on the shelf nearly 10 years later.

Your speedo pinion is worth a fortune now as they are hard to come by.
