Default anyway to run the odometer miles up?

my odometer broke at 102k miles. i found a replacement guage at 97k miles. i was wondering is there a way to get the miles up without driving or touching the counter, like maybe an electrical current to make the odometer spin up to the miles?

Put the front on jackstands, and leave it on cruise control in 5th at like 1200 RPM - no load on the engine so it'll be fine - like idling high.

Just grab a beer and the newspaper and wait.

And be sure that the stand are secure so you dont find your car exiting through the glass window of the garage and landing in the woods

Eh, at 1200 RPM in 5th if that thing lands it's gonna stall the hell right out, but yeah, be safe, not sorry.

Also, another way you can do it is you find the cluster pinouts you can run the voltage that the VSS puts out (at like 120mph) and run that through the right pins on the cluster - the speedo will read that high and the odometer will turn. Though it'll need 12v from another source.

It'll be a pain in the *** but it's possible I suppose.

Or just take it to the dealership.
