Hope someone can help, I have just replaced the LCD screen on my Tuscan and I am now getting Diagnostic Code A, this has got to do with the speedo needle as it does not move when driving. I would think that I have moved something whilst changing the LCD, has anybody else had this and is able to shed some light as what I need to adjust?

Cheers in advance

Steve

Not taking the pi** but it’s nothing stupid like the glass has shifted taking it a part and is now pressing on the needle, as I had similar!

Unfortunately not, when I first put in all back together I had no fuel gauge and also got diagnostic code B, got fuel gauge now and diagnostic code A. On the plus side I can now see that I have clocked up 110,000 miles.

My guess is that it is to do with the micro switch that the needle presses to set the zero position - either a bad wire connection or a jammed / sticky switch. Some contact cleaner got mine working again. Or maybe the grub screw that holds the needle it is loose , so it slips before getting enough pressure to click the micro switch ?
