Got into my car last night to take it to the TVR Centre for the recall work to be done, and noticed my speedo wasn't working. I've not driven it since Tuesday, and it was working fine then.
Does any one have any ideas where/what to check. Is there a fuse that needs to be changed, or is it mechanical. Want to get it fixed cos I was planning on taking the Cerby for a long drive over the weekend, and don't want to worry about it.
Unfortunately the TVR Centre said they'd probably not got time to look at it. How long does it take? Is it a quick job, or painfully tricky?

Thanks, Paul

Its most likely to be the actuator which I think is dif mounted but can be changed in about 10 mins by a good dealer. Had mine done twice, both times for next to nothing. I'd sit back and ejoy some free miles if I were you.

I seem to have a recurring problem with the Speedo in my Cerbera also.

The speedo often reads 140mph but I never exceed 70mph ... honest officer !
