Extract the digits

Asked by Tom Lowndes

THE digits on the speedo in our XF Falcon have stopped turning but the speed still registers. Is this common on older cars and is there an easy fix? Would it stop us from getting a pink ticket?

IT'S not common. You should take it to an instrument repairer. Generally, it won't be a problem with annual checks, provided the speedo is working so you know how fast you're going.
