    If you're lucky, you probably only need to change odometer gear:

    You can also search www.eBay.com with "odometer gear volvo"

    And be careful when you do this, I recently repaired a broken gear and
    in the process broke the motor that drives the odometer and had to find
    another one. The motor looks like it may plug in, but it's soldered to
    the circuit board and after removing the screws, you remove the whole
    circuit board, under that is the gear assembly.

    I replaced the electrolytic capacitor on the circuit board while I was
    in there since they deteriorate with age and cause weird problems when
    they go bad.
