Hi Geoff,

Many thanks for the response. I'll try giving it a clean, as you say, and see how that goes.

It may be a wee while before I get round to it, but will let you know.

Thanks again.

Occassional Speedo failure

Hi all,

I was out for a wee trip in my Bongo - a '95 2.5 diesel - this weekend, and on a couple of occassions the speedo stopped working. The first time I noticed the needle "flicked" up, then dropped to zero and stopped working. I arrived at my destination shortly after, and parked up. When I set ...
