OK....after the change over to an MPH one, its not working at all. I have checked the connections etc, put the KMPH one back...that works

Hot on the heels of the latest update to the current forum software, I find the branch we are presently running will be going end of life in May.

This means no more patches, no more updates and most importantly, no more security updates..

This means we must update sooner rather than later to version 3.1.x.. I have already discussed this once but...

Does anybody know if/how to reset an Electro Mechanical Miles recorded to Zero ?

I have to change my French KMPH Speedo (at present only the face is changed to fool the MOT man) to a MPH one.
I have sourced the correct V6 type in MPH ( I love you Jim :) ) but I would like to reset that to either zero or to the correct KM/MPH.
I will naturally...

Last post

It was recorded on the MoT as KM traveled for the first registration......but that is a good thing to do I think along with making a note to keep with the cars history.

So, who wants to believe my car has done 2,500 miles since new :)....I can see the ebay description, maybe I will get a good price :)

I took my test at a unique time, it was during the Suez crises. Due to the rationing of fuel driving tests were suspended but if you already held a provisional license you were allowed to drive unaccompanied, a situation I took full advantage of - they couldn't really fail you after that could they. 8-)
