Ah! Bugger! What did you find when you took yours apart? Any knackered cogs?

Yes a cog with a tooth missing, the little orange one, the tooth was sat on the printed circuit board

I will have to take the clocks out again and see what's what

Ok, so check the other cog that sits with the smallest orange one, it may be a bit worn too. Make sure everything is seated correctly when you put it back together. You could perhaps try what I did and have things apart and put it half back in to the dash and get power on it to see what's going on. It was only when I did this did I get the result that things were actually working and it seemed to be the reassemble that was knocking things out of sync, of sorts!

I put up a couple of YouTube links to my vids I took. Can you view them?

Clocks out again

, decided to zero the trip and it did so when i pushed the lever, took the clocks apart, checked everything and can see no reason why the odometer doesn't work, so clocks back together again.
Will put them back in and see what happens.
