What are the signs that my speedometer cable is going bad?

A speedometer needle that fluctuates erratically or emits clicking or whirring noises is either broken or requires lubrication. 

Sometimes the problem may be caused by the square cable ends have worn excessively, rounded or kinked. Or a failed angle drive that connects the speedometer to the gearbox.
