When I turn either the male or female end of the speedometer angle drive the opposite end doesn't turn, they seem to be disconnected. Is this normal?

If that is happening, the angle drive is junk. I found many available on eBay, and a small drive gear on shaft listed as well, is this part inside the drive that is possible source of the failure?

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif) Be careful.. the 911 angle drive and the 914 angle drive look very similar. But if you try to put a 911 angle drive in a 914, the speedometer won't work. The 911 drive turns backwards from a 914 drive. |

I assume some sellers won't know original source, and is there any external part number or other distinguishing characteristic for ID of correct replacement?
