Holiday Rambler Odometor

Hi I recently purchased a 1998 HR Imperial and noticed the odometer is not working. It is separate from the speedometer. The speedometer works but the odometer which is digital does not. Any ideas where to start looking?

Is it physically part of the speedometer, or separate?

Edit: I think I found a picture of your dash and it is part of the speedometer. These can't be fixed, you have to replace the entire speedometer assembly. Fortunately they are relatively standardized, so your main issue will be finding one that looks similar.

Thanks but mine is separate from the speedometer. I was wondering if anyone else has had this problem and what it was. Is it the odometer? It is digital so where does it get the information from?

Check to see if your speedometer is electronic. It probably is, and both would be fed from the same point. Also see if you can find the maker of the speedometer (and model) which may be written in the face, at the bottom, in very small print.

Yes the speedometer is electronic and it works but the odometer does not. Would the odometer feed off of the speedometer?

I don't have a lot of experience where the odometer is physically not part of the speedometer, but there are two ways it could work.

First is that the speedometer could take the speed signal (for example, 2000 pulses per mile) and the speedometer would process this and send it to the odometer to display.

Second is for the odometer to be completely separate from the speedometer.

Does your odometer display anything at all? Or is it completed blank?

It displays 120,000 and it has a trip feature that is at 70 and it will not reset to 0.

Though I'd replied, but don't see it!

I'd guess your odometer assembly has failed. My suggestion would be to find a replacement speedometer (they are standard sized) with a built-in Odometer and drop that in. Then repurpose the space where the original one was. Not sure what they were thinking when they put in that thing...
(I found a picture that seems to match your description).

That is what I have exactly.
Your suggestion sounds like it may work. I haven't pulled the dash yet but on my previous Imperial which was almost exactly the same it looked like you could change out the speedo fairly easy. My last Imperial had the same odometer but some of the newer ones have them in the speedo.
Thanks for the idea!1
