Speedometer drive — removal and refitting (Peugeot 106)

Note: Some models do not have a cable-driven speedometer.

Removal

1. Chock the rear wheels then jack up the front of the vehicle and support it on axle stands (see "Jacking and vehicle support"). The speedometer drive is situated on the rear of the transmission housing, next to the inner end of the right-hand driveshaft.

2. Pull out the speedometer cable retaining pin and disconnect the cable from the speedometer drive (see illustrations). Where necessary, disconnect the wiring connector from the speedometer drive.





3. Slacken and remove the retaining bolt and withdraw the speedometer drive and driven pinion assembly from the transmission housing, along with its O-ring.



4. Examine the pinion for signs of damage and renew if necessary. Renew the housing O-ring as a matter of course. On models where the speedometer drive is also the fuel injection system vehicle speed sensor (these are easily identified by the wiring connector on the housing) the drive assembly is a sealed unit However, on all other models, the speedometer drive can be dismantled and the driven pinion and oil seal renewed individually.

5. If the driven pinion is worn or damaged, also examine the drive pinion in the transmission housing for signs of wear or damage. To renew the drive pinion, the transmission must be dismantled and the differential gear removed. This task should therefore be entrusted to a Peugeot dealer.

Refitting

6. Fit a new O-ring to the speedometer drive. Refit the drive to the transmission, ensuring that the pinions are correctly engaged.

7. Refit the retaining bolt and tighten it securely. Where necessary, reconnect the wiring connector to the speedometer drive.

8. Apply a smear of oil to the speedometer cable O-rings, then reconnect the cable to the drive, securing it in position with the rubber retaining pin. Lower the vehicle to the ground.
