Hi all new to forum 1st post ty
I have an 1985 fxst The Problem is speedo cable is broken and I read about the jewellers screw at the base of the speedo drive needs to be removed to extract cable from speedo drive never done this b4 so thought i would have a crack at it . The problem it the head of the screw is minimal and I am unable to get a hold of it with the even a jewellers screw driver seems it may have to be drilled out (is this a good idea?)what I would like to know is dose this screw thread into the speedodrive and apply pressure to the cable stopping it coming out or does the speedo drive hole act as a guide so this small screw is thread into cable cap
Im still awaiyng a cable so have no idea
Sorry if it sound strange
how would you go about repairing and replacing cable
Thankyou any help would be appreciated
