Odometer removal 200 1981

The odometer on my 1981 240 has stopped working. Can anyone give me some advice as to how to R+R so I can take it to a shop for repair? Any tips would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.

    Odometer removal

    You will have to remove the speedo. Remove the two blank panels to the right of the instrument cluster and remove the 2 screws. Remove the light switch knobs and pull the panel away on the left of the cluster, 2 more screws. Take the top of the steering wheel cover off, 2 more screws. You should now be able to pull the cluster out. Make sure to note where everything connects before you start disconnecting the wires.

    The speedo will unscrew from the back of the cluster.

      Thanks for the reply. A local Volvo mechanic told me there is a trick to disconnecting the speedo cable from the back without breaking anything. Any ideas on this? Thanks in advance for any help you can offer.
