Lu,
   Your gonna have to take the cable off the spedo and see if you can work it loose again. If not time for a new cable.

  Mike,
Thanks for the advice on how to test the cable's function. Any hints 
on how to get the cable back out of the housing so that I can test 
the function? Can I just push it out from the front to the back? The 
housing is stiff and I don't think it will gather up on the cable 
enough for me to thread it out.
ymmv?

say chuck it up in a drill and have some one watch the speedo if it

 used to work at sold 
replacement inserts you may be able to use if your housing is okay.
