DONE! and thanks! I bought my 2000 F150 in October of 2019, and the intermittent odometer has probably been an issue for 15 years. True on the gear indicator comment by Ralph Chapman... the tabs are easy to release... but getting the gear indicator assembly aligned and reinstalled was a bit difficult. While I had the cluster out, I cleaned out the years of dust that had accumulated behind the bezel... looks great now... and I don't have to take photos of my rarely-showing odometer any more! By the way, all the terminals looked bad on mine after viewing with a USB microscope... I re-soldered them all. I used tacky flux like that used on printed circuit board trace repair and covered all the solder points. I did use rosin-core solder also, but this technique worked great... little cones of solder at each connection.

i bought a 2007 new off the showroom and i make my money off mileage and less than a week later mine went out. ford refused to fix it so i learned how to do this. and now its doing it again. but i don't use it for work and i'm to old and lazy to fix it now. oh and really good video one of the best i have seen so far

I wanted to thank you for taking the time and sharing your video, after watching it I was able to fix my odometer. I live in Ct and they have emissions testing and unfortunately I was not going to be able to reregister my truck do to the fact that they can’t test if mileage isn’t visible. Which in my case it wasn’t but thanks to you I’m all set now. Thanks again.

Since mine works more often than it doesn't, your video convinced me to leave it alone. With all that plastic, I would end up breaking more than I fixed! Good video though. I figured something was poorly connected inside there. Ivan, on his Pine Hollow Auto Diagnostics channel is always fixing bad solder joints, instead of buying expensive new parts for his customers. He likes to see why things failed. He took a transmission apart to show how some pins inside it were too small for the stress they were being subjected to. His favorite expression is, "No parts required."

The gear selector is easily removable from the cluster so the bottom kick panel doesn't need to be removed. There is a tab on each side of the indicator when squeezed gently will completely disengage the part.

Now the odometer will last about a year and it'll start doing it again as the seasons change and make the solder joint expand and contract and when you go to turn on the headlights the blinkers will go solid and turn signals and headlights will short out oil light will come on when headlights are on and the gauges will start acting crazy
