bighands 0 Posted December 22, 2003 does anyone know how 2 fix these? mine doesnt work at all, just wondering if there are any common faults and if u can buy some plug in gizmo to find out what the prob is? will it stop working if one of the sensors doesnt work? where is the 'brain'? cheers lads!

chrishill 0 Posted December 22, 2003 Mine stopped working for a bit, seemed to be getting power to it as it was still showing one 'bar' things that it uses to make up the digits. I was told to disconnect one of the battery connections and tap it on the terminal 7 times...and fugger me if that didnt fix it! :shock: no idea why or how, maybe it needs 7 pulse's to reset itself? anyway, its worth a try!

dr_mat 0 Posted December 23, 2003 You can pick up new instrument clusters for not too much dosh on ebay or down the breakers yards. The MFA is in the cluster, so it's just a question of dealing with the fiddly job of fitting it and connecting all it's sensors and stuff. Of course, if you remove and re-fit your own, you might find it suddenly works! This kind of thing is often down to a duff connection somewhere.
