Trip meter not Tripping.?

[refugeefromcalif]

I reset my trip meter everytime I fill up. The last two times though, I've had to repeatedly push the reset button, (While driving), until it starts moving. Usually within 1 mile.
Speedometer and odometer are working normal. (Well, as Normal as a DeLoreans does work).
I'm guessing that the problem is going to be in the dash or meter itself.

Anyone have an idea what I need to check, rebuild or replace?

Thanks in advance, George

Probably nothing more than disassemble, clean, lubricate, reassemble. If the spring doesn't return the reset all the way back it won't work correctly.
