Masenko Posted February 8, 2007 Share Posted February 8, 2007 Basically, the speedometer works intermittently; and the OD-OFF light flashes on the dashboard. Pushing the OD button does nothing. Also, the milecounter doesn't count miles; all of this happens when the Speedo isnt working. However, I believe it to be the derestrictor chip. Can you help?

Nic Posted February 8, 2007 Share Posted February 8, 2007 Your best option would be to remove the delimiter you have and replace with one of the Thor units, which are used by a lot of members.

scottysupra Posted February 8, 2007 Share Posted February 8, 2007 I had the exact same problem with mine it was the crap delimiter. Get a thor one fitted there much better Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wilko Posted February 8, 2007 Share Posted February 8, 2007 check the back of the clocks, should be connected in 3 places, if these are not screwed down tight it can cause problems, also the od light flashing is telling you the engine code that is being thrown up, check on this site for thread on reading codes mate Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Masenko Posted February 8, 2007 Author Share Posted February 8, 2007 Engine code? What would I need that for? Sorry...I must sound so n00bish... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wilko Posted February 8, 2007 Share Posted February 8, 2007 the auto shows engine fault codes through the o/d light flashing, check the flashes, i am guessing it is 4 flashes then 2 which is a speed sensor fault caused by the chip or its wiring. search for thread on o/d light flashing should help mate Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Masenko Posted February 21, 2007 Author Share Posted February 21, 2007 Many thanks, had it checked out. The O/D light only flashed when I pushed the car harder...it was a speed sensor fault. Thanks again! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
