- Speedometer Display
-
- The speedometer
- displays the
- current road speed
- of the car. A
- twisted steel cable
- connects the
- transmission to the
- input of the
- speedometer. When
- the car is in
- motion, the cable
- is spun by the
- transmission at a
- speed proportional
- to the road speed.
- The spinning cable
- rotates the
- speedometer input
- shaft. The input
- shaft is connected
- to the magnetic
- drive in the
- speedometer. As
- the magnetic drive
- rotates, it pulls
- the indicator
- needle to the
- proper position to
- display the current
- road speed.
