Continuing the saga of repairing my speedometer. How does one remove the plastic gear in the speedometer housing behind the magnet? I tried the tech tips and other topics but can't quite determine how to remove that plastic gear. It has a round cap on the outside that might be the answer but there is no obvious way to remove that cap.

Plastic gear in speedometer

Apparent end cap for plastic gear removal?

That gear appears to be stuck and I presume should rotate freely.
