Walker\'s Log Speed Indicator not working

I have a Walker's Knotmaster trailing log (Model KDO Mk IIIA). It works fine but the speed attachment, which used to work, has stopped indicating. I phoned Walker's in Birmingham and although they service the logs they no longer do so for the 'speedo' (which they stopped selling 12 years ago). They suggested it was probably the speedo rather than the log that was at fault. I've opened it up and there are no obvious loose wires or components and, although the magnet is a bit rusty, the needle is free to move. Any suggestions as to what might be wrong or where I might have it looked at?
