The speedometer reset knob is a small knurled adjustment knob located on or near the speedometer gauge in early Porsche 911 dashboards. It connects to the trip odometer mechanism and allows the driver to manually reset the distance counter.
The OE Match Speedometer reset knob is designed to replicate the original Porsche component in appearance, size and fitment. It is particularly useful because the original Porsche part is no longer available, making OE-style replacements an important solution for maintenance and restoration of classic models.
The knob allows the driver to reset the trip odometer (day trip counter) to zero. This feature helps drivers track individual journey distances, fuel consumption or maintenance intervals.
Replacing a worn or missing reset knob restores full functionality to the instrument cluster and ensures the trip counter can be operated easily and reliably.
Function
• Trip Odometer Reset: Allows manual reset of the speedometer trip counter
• Instrument Control: Connects to the internal odometer reset mechanism
• Driver Convenience: Enables tracking of trip distance and mileage
• Restoration Fit: OE-style design maintains authentic interior appearance
Over time the small reset knob can become worn, cracked or lost during instrument servicing. Without the knob, the trip odometer cannot be reset easily. Installing a new OE Match replacement restores full functionality of the speedometer system and preserves the authentic interior appearance of classic Porsche models.
Consider replacing the reset knob if you notice:
• Missing or broken speedometer reset knob
• Difficulty resetting the trip odometer
• Worn or damaged instrument control
• During dashboard or instrument cluster restoration

This gear is located on the side of the speedometer framework and forms an important part of the internal gear train that drives both the odometer and trip meter. Over time, the original plastic gear can become brittle through age and repeated use, often developing a fine crack around the centre bore where it fits onto the shaft. Once cracked, the gear can no longer grip the shaft correctly, causing it to slip and preventing the odometer from recording mileage accurately.
One of the most common symptoms is that the speedometer needle continues to work normally, while the odometer and trip meter stop counting or operate intermittently.
It is important to note that there are potentially two internal gears that commonly fail within the speedometer. Before ordering, inspect the gear mounted on the side of the speedometer framework.
If your existing gear is metal, this replacement is not required. If your gear is plastic, inspect it carefully around the shaft hole for hairline cracks or signs of slipping. Even a very small crack is enough to cause the gear to fail.To ensure the correct replacement is ordered, the speedometer must be opened and the existing gear inspected. As Porsche used several different gear styles and tooth counts across production, it is always recommended to confirm the original gear before purchasing.
Key Features
- Replaces the plastic gear fitted to the side of the speedometer framework
- Restores odometer and trip meter operation
- Direct replacement for worn or cracked original gears
- Manufactured for precise fit and reliable performance
- Ideal for speedometer restoration and instrument repairs
Always inspect your original gear before ordering Not required if your existing gear is metal
Porsche Mechanical Speedometer & Odometer Repair Parts
The mechanical VDO speedometers fitted to classic Porsche models are renowned for their durability, but after decades of service the internal plastic gears naturally become brittle. One of the most common failures occurs when the gear mounted on the side of the speedometer framework develops a small crack around the centre shaft.
Although the crack is often difficult to see, it prevents the gear from gripping the shaft securely, allowing it to rotate independently instead of driving the odometer mechanism. Replacing the damaged gear restores accurate mileage recording while preserving the originality of your factory instrument.
Common Symptoms of a Failed Mechanical Odometer Gear
- Speedometer needle operates correctly
- Odometer has stopped recording mileage
- Trip meter no longer works
- Intermittent odometer operation
- Gear slips on the shaft
- Hairline crack visible around the centre bore of the plastic gear
Because several different gear designs and tooth counts were used across Porsche production, dismantling the speedometer and inspecting the original gear is essential before ordering a replacement.
