have a niggley problem....

the trip computer dosnt seem to work...?
shows total mileage, trip 1 mileage, trip 2 mileage....
but average consumption always shows 99.9MPG regardless if moving or not and range show nubers in the hundreds

would be nice to think is was doing these figures but somehow i think it's not working correctly.....!

i do have a lpg conversion so not sure if that has something to do with it..?

confused dot com

I had this after I had the instrument binnacle out. I hadn't pushed one of the multi-pin connectors fully home.

if the o rings have been replaced in the heater matrix then the clocks have more than likley been removed,the mpg computer tells lies anyway so you dont realy need it,and it only works from trip 2 so if you keep reseting it it gets even worse.
