Milometer problems

[Graham4.5]

My milometer and trip has stopped working @ 19999 miles. I have read other posts which say that it should correct itself after approx 50-100miles or by reversing for a distance. I have tried both of these methods and still not working. Is the unit easy to replace or do I need to take it in to my indie?? Help and suggestions as always gratefully received

If it doesn't start working again I'd take it your Indie. It could be that the transducer needs adjusting. Once it gets past the 20,000 mark it will work fine until you get to 29,999 and then the same thing is likely to happen.

this has happened with mine a few times - when the problem persisted a new speedo module seemed to do the trick. No idea how or how easy they are to fit though

Mine was ok after 50 miles or so.

Often hitting a certain speed seems to free it.

I didn't believe it, but it worked on my first and second Cerberas


.......On a private runway of course

I just made a little hole, at the back, near the motor and turned it manually.
