Yes- probably. An A4 sheet of instructions,I would imagine,giving a sequence of ignition key turning and trip meter twiddling IIRC.

If its anything like the Veccy C, were by you hold down the trip reset button on the dash, and turn the igition to stage II. Don't bother.

Have a fiddle with the dash buttons, hold down various things as you turn the ignition on.

 i bought one of these for my rover 75 2.0 v6.  all you get is about 15 sheets of a4 explaining how too reset the service light which is exactly the same as flashing out the faluts codes on the pre faclift omega basicly you place a paperclip in the holes i think 4 and 8 in the diagnostic port and turn on the ignition to postion 2 for around 4 secs for the service indicator and longer periods for the other indicators.

 i might still have my  guide i will have a look for you,  if i have still got i could post to you for free

cheers neil

Thanks Neil but just 'WON' the auction. Only £1.29 +pp so no great shakes.

Why the hell do you need 15 sheets of A4 to do a small job like that?

I paid £5 buy it now for mine :o

the one i got if its the same goes on and on about what could happen if you short out the wrong terminals ie blown ecu and ways of making a tool to short out the terminals safer ( adding a resistor).

i found it very tricky to reset the service interval indicator never did manage mine read  -27000 or somthing like that but i did manage to reset the clock ;D ;D your timeing of turning the iginition to 2 has to be spot on you will see ;)
