2000 Ford Taurus - odometer not spinning
I have a 2000 Ford Taurus. The odometer has stopped spinning as well as the trip odometer. The speedometer works fine. I do not see a cable on it. How does it work? Off the computer? What would cause the odometer to stop spinning? Every other gauge works fine. Thanks for any insight.

I think Davo has it right. Just to add a little, there is a vehicle speed sensor which sends electrical pulses The computer receives these pulses,then sends them to a circuit board in the instrument cluster. That feeds the speedometer and odometer. Sounds like the circuit is failing to feed the odometer or the odometer has gone bad. In either case, it calls for a replacement cluster - not cheap.
