usually you have to buy a new speedometer. There is no simple fix for an Odometer problem. In fact by Law you aren't allowed to mess with it.

that does nothing to the odometer,

of course you can replace the bulbs in the back, light bulbs do go bad.

and the face plate isn't modifying anything

he's referring to rolling the odometer (putting a 20k cluster into a car with 50k for example)

On 5th gens I dont think you can just replace the odometer depressingly, does your speedo work too? my problem was that the speedo didn't work and as a result the odometer didn't either.

I've got two spare clusters so feel free to let me know if you need parts
