Get this, the tacko & speedo dials have gone mad, well working their way incrimantally round in the wrong direction respectivelyconfused

They seem to rotate a few degrees when you fire up the ingition, as you can hear the little electronic sqeltch before the 3 beeps of the rev indication system sound.

Anyone have a clue or good starting point?

Its the zero sensor playing up or the ribbon cable that has come loose. Remove the black surround from round the dials you can see the ribbon cable down the centre of the dials, give it a push with your finger. Failing that remove the clocks & check the cable is inserted correctly. You can always give them a tap too, fixed mine on a couple of times until I took them out and sorted it out the right way

humm...had a look and the broader of the two ribbons looked damaged (possibly where it has been pinched in the past).

So going to try a replacement. By the way what does the zero sensor look like?
