And now half the info is missing on the computermabob.

Just a case of doing that thing where the dials dance around to reset it?

[lee131]

No - its all back in. mileage and distance covered is showing but not much else.

 

[fUbAr]

aren't all the other units in the display based on average economy? therefore you'll need to go for a drive to get something displayed in them. Just thinking out loud...

I unplugged mine to put some tape over the MIL before I sold it. Put it back and no problems with the dials etc.

 

[lee131]

try resetting the ECU then, (if youve already covered some miles and its still the same)

Negative terminal off the battery for a while then reconnect.

Map is on solid memory, you won't loose it unless you reflash it.

disconnectng the battery didn't work.

Any more ideas?

 

[lee131]

try the clock test routine or check your connections?

 

[Da]

Check the earth at the rear of the clocks.

Thats separate from the rest of the plugs is it?

Would that not stop the trip computer working all together?

 

[JoedotwasT5phy]
