The gas tank sending unit would not affect the odometer.
The sending unit in the tank grounds the gauge.
You could have a problem with the printed circuit board in the instrument cluster.

SOURCE: 98 merc tracer wont turn over....please helpme...

when tracers stop out of the blue like this, it can be a number of things. #1 is fuel pump failure or pump relay, or fuse. check to see if there is perssure at fule rail. check fule pressure regulator. #2 is ignition coil failure, or no spark. check plug wire from coil for spark. that will get you going in right direction. good luck.

SOURCE: Broken odometer 97 Mercury Tracer

Depends on the main fault, Dealer = $380.oo to 480.oo Good local garage about half and if you clean the car real good maybe even less, we like working on good well keep clean cars. Remove any thing that might get gone - of value. Mostly we do not like the stuff in our way (if it is a dash problem) and if for any reason something falls under the seat and you can't find it you feel ripped off.

What causes the speedometer to stop working on a 97 mercury tracer

If it's not moving at all, you may have to replace the gauge (or gauge cluster, depending on your dash setup). You can always test this by seeing if it's getting proper power/ground to it. If it is, then clearly the gauge is broken and needs replacement.

Broken odometer 97 Mercury Tracer

It is easier to contact your Mercury dealership to ask this question but I have changed many odometers out throughout the years and sometimes the dealerships frown on having to give you a new one because of the fact you could lie about your mileage and actually set back the miles which is against the law in many states. Sometimes the dealerships don't have a problem at all and will send off for a new one at a cost between $200. to $400.00 on the average.

97 tracer P0401 code won't go away

Late suggestion; it may be that the code needs to be reset via a code reader and that the problem will remain in memory until forcibly removed. That is fairly common.
