Just to say I've been running the last few days and have had no problems!

Probably jinxed it now though

Hey Gmac,
Tonight old fumble fingers is going to change the cog in his odometer, watch out for a box of bits arriving on your doorstep

haha!! Good luck. Follow the guide and you shouldn't have any problems, just take photos as you go so you know where screws go back!

I'll be keeping an eye out for progress!

I have a plan of action with this

will post when i am going to start and then when i finish, this could be very funny if i drop that cog again

then it will be hands and knees searching for a while

Okay off to the hobby room now, lets see what i can do

sinbin5t · 16-01-17, 07:27 PM

DAH DAH !
That wasn't hard at all

why do i worry over nothing

I did cheat as the clocks were already out of the car though, and i also managed not to drop anything

it was the same as yours Gmac, one tiny tooth broken off the cog, had a look for it and it was on the pcb, how did it get there ? unless it was during the taking apart bit.
So all back together with a new cog installed and now waiting for new bulbs for the clocks, BLUE one's

then its back in the car and see what happens !

Oh, i took a photo of the old cog and tooth too.

Cheers Gmac
