My speedometer cable broke inside the line, i ordered a new one with similar ends that have the square cable exposed. Upon taking the end out at the front wheel, i found this end on it (see picture). Can i separate the cable from the helical gear part and use my new cable? I cant find any speedometer cables online with this end. Maybe adding some heat will help get the cable out. Thanks for the help photos.app.goo.gl/aufoSwrp4v8rJQB1A |

I think you will find the square part of the cable is jammed inside that worm gear
and it sounds like you already have a plan of action

If i drill out the remnants, id have to re crimp the new cable inside there. What could you use to re crimp that metal piece? Im thinking ill have to use my vice to get enough force to actually crimp the metal around the new speedo cable properly. |

well if you want you can just put the old puck on to ride around to the store and stuff and not bother with the speedometer for a few days
its not like mileage really effects the price of a used scooter
