Both my trip meter and odometer have stopped turning. I opened it up and it looks like a couple teeth are missing off of the small gear that drives them.

Does anyone have any experience with these gears?

I put in a set of the non-US ones to fix my odo. Still working 20,000ks later.

I installed their US set back in 2011 and still working fine. The old ones were mush.

I ordered new gears from odometergears.com, they showed up in a couple days, installation ws pretty straight forward ( I took a picture of the old gears before I took it apart. )

Everything works great, very pleased.

The worse part was getting the old gears in the right part of the bifocals to count the teeth to be sure I was ordering the right gear set. Ended up getting my wife to count them.
