Hello,

There are small gears that turns the odometer as you drive. Over time those gears can wear off or break, causing the odometer to not function.

This is fairly a common issue with these generations of Mustangs.
There are actually odometer repair kits that you can purchase online (Amazon, eBay etc.), that will fix the issue.

In order to access those gears you will have to take off the instrument cluster and take it apart.

I have attached the replacement process for your reference.

Please let me know of any questions.
Thank you.
