My Griffith was going from 40,000 to 41000 but stopped half way . Not the true mileage as service history shows its already had a new speedo
I seem to remember years ago reading on here about a company that rebuilds them ? any ideas

This is a TVR peculiarity. My odo stopped at 49,999 and a bit. It did the same at 29,000 and 39,000. Both times I had given up wondering what to do when ... Oh look it's started again. I suggest that you keep driving, and as soon as you give up on it working ever again, then it will!

That'd be the ironically named speedy cables - be prepared for it to take a while!

I hear tell that getting up a little speed then giving the speedo a good thump often gets it going again.
