    Anyone know where the speedodometer cable is located on a 1976 Maverick? I think I just need to tighten it to get it working again.

    I put my hand back there behind the console but am unable to locate the correct cable. I think when I had some front speakers put it they guy must have moved that cable.

    I will have my mechanic look at it Monday when he comes to replace the fan belts.
