I am pretty sure those have an old style mechanical odometer, unless the faults happened at exactly the same time, it might just be coincidence - the old dear isn't getting any younger Does the speedometer work fine?

yeah I bet the little gears in the odometer are just worn out. As for the AC, well, welcome to old German AC. I suspect that's a problem in the control head for the AC system. You may need to spend some time prowling around the forums at www.benzworld.org to get more technical advice.

I had the same issue with the AC fan turning on and off on its own in my 89 560SL. After i turned it on and off a few times it would finally stay on. In my case it was a loose connection behind the control panel. If you have done any work behind the main console in the last while that may be your issue as well.
