Thanks for that info i wouldnt worry about it to much to be honest as i would just work it out off the rev counter but my wife is going to learn to drive in it so she wants the speedo working.

Mine packed up two months ago, speedo and mileometer.

My Samsung Galaxy Ace fits perfectly in the dash in front of the speedo and I use Speedview, a free GPS based speedo/data loging app.

Works for me, although I will go out and twiddle with the fuse wiring tomorrow :)

Success !!!

Not the fuse wiring, nor the sender.

I removed the dash surround (2 screws above clock facia and oull it all off) then the 4 screws that hold the clocks in, undid the 2 connectors from the back of the clocks and wiggled them around, nothing.

While I was looking at the back of the clocks I noticed they are made by Magnetti Marelli .......

The lightbulb lit up in my brain,,,,

Italian electrics, give em a smack !

1 short sharp smack on the clocks, connectors back in and speedo and milometer both working fine :)
