Title: Mileometer
Post by: a2reed on 19 February 2010, 23:48:50

has stuck at 99,999.... some say this might be a good thing but in the end I am going to have to do something as the mileage is on the MOT now and going to look silly if it has done no miles in 12 months!

Any idea how to fix this ??

They are electric these days, most likely the motor is gone - replace it, they are around £20 at breakers, or I have one in E.London if it is closer...

My Astra had done zero miles according to the MOT certs in at least up to to when I bought it.  ::)
Do any other of the speed dependant functions work? ie mpg & distance left in your fuel tank etc. Could be the dash  :-/
