Flashing mileage reading!
« on: October 21, 2010, 03:22:17 PM »
Hello,

I just got a new alternator in my disco td5, everythings working like it should except the mileage reading on the dashboard. It's flashing on and off, does anyone know how to stop it or why it's doing it?

Cheers Mike

Hi
That is an indication that the mileage stored in the dash is different to that store in the ECU. You will need to get it put on Testbook,Nanocom or a Hawkeye to sync it.
Whats your location? I'm just outside Falkirk and have a Nanocom.

Cheers
Graeme

Hi Graeme,

I'm based in Dunfermline, but work in Grangemouth. If your Nanocom is able to sort it I'd be willing to pay, its driving me daft!!!

Hi Mike
I am only about 5 mins from Grangemouth, where do you work?

I'll be about on Friday if you want to come up on your lunch break.

I'll have ago at re syncing it for you no problem and there's no need to pay, you can owe me a favour :D

My postcode is FK2 0TT number 23.

Let me know if you can make it, I'll be in my garage all day anyway working on my car ::)

Cheers
Graeme
