Whirlybird Posted July 2, 2016 Report Share Posted July 2, 2016 Hi For the past year the odometer has had part of the digits missing, easy to see what the mileage was but still a fault. i took the car for MOT (failed on a small split on one rear inside tyre?) and all was ok. I went for the retest (only live 1/2 mile from the garage) and the odometer didn't show anything at all. So, my question is, what do you think the issue is ? my thoughts were probably soldering on the back of the odometer gone bad, if that's the case does it mean dash out ? many thanks Erik Quote I have CDO, it's like OCD but all the letters are in alphabetical order, AS THEY SHOULD BE !

Gold FFM Sparky Posted July 2, 2016 Gold FFM Report Share Posted July 2, 2016 Seems to be standard on the late dash. Mine fades in and out as it wishes, although it's much better now I've fixed the damp issue. No idea about the fix but fortunately, 2 screws and you can get the cowl off. Lovely!

Whirlybird Posted July 2, 2016 Author Report Share Posted July 2, 2016 Thanks Sparky, i had images of taking the dash out....... whichever, will have to wait until my barn is built and I have somewhere to work. Will take it out then and have a look. ta Quote I have CDO, it's like OCD but all the letters are in alphabetical order, AS THEY SHOULD BE !

Gold FFM Sparky Posted July 2, 2016 Gold FFM Report Share Posted July 2, 2016 Playing with connections doesn't seem to make a blind bit of difference.

Probably caused by that time you clocked it. Quote Margate Exotics. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gold FFM Sparky Posted July 2, 2016 Gold FFM Report Share Posted July 2, 2016 At least mine stays in the dash. Quote British Fart to Florida, Nude to New York, Dunce to Denmark, Numpty to Newfoundland. And Shitfaced Silly Sod to Sweden. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gold FFM Sparky Posted July 4, 2016 Gold FFM Report Share Posted July 4, 2016 It's that pedal on the right; you need to press it now and then.
