ESKIN8R Posted March 31, 2010 Share Posted March 31, 2010 Sounds like the cable clip is broken? If so maybe another cable is the best option, cortina or Sierras have longer cables than escorts and are the same fittings Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tytcnt Posted March 31, 2010 Author Share Posted March 31, 2010 yeah its a white plastic clip behind the speedo gauge that holds the speedo cable on? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Raizer Posted March 31, 2010 Share Posted March 31, 2010 Or a skinny cable tie around it, if the clip part has broken off a cable tie should tuck into the grove the plastic clip goes into. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chrome_GT Posted March 31, 2010 Share Posted March 31, 2010 As above anyway - pretty sure cortinas, escorts, capris have the same speedo cable style so you should be able to hold of one of them easily. Usually it is the inner cable which gets damaged so someone here might have a spare outer sheath which will have the clip ?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
