TVR self repairing odometer
Discussion
I'm delighted to report that my odometer has repaired itself !
It stopped working after a long & wet trip back from Scotland. It stopped on number 9.
Apparently they all do that
Thank you to everyone who told me that this was a common problem. I'd tried driving over cats eyes and tapping furiously on the speedo - but to no avail.
Joe very kindly sent me a long and detail guide to dash removal. That caused me several sleepless nights I can tell you !
Anyway, a combination of warmer weather, the heater on full blast for an hour and a half on the way to Burghley, strategic tapping, potholes and swearing and we are back in the land of the living !
I cannot describe just how happy and relieved I am. But to give you an idea - about as happy & relieved as I was on my first Euro Tour when I managed to avoid Glenn's sink plunger initiation ceremony !!

It’s one of the mysteries of TVR’s - how they magically repair themselves.
Pete - I’ve knock speedo knuckle - a lump from all the tapping ! My passenger on Sunday thought I’d gone doolally.
Joe, I hope to avoid the trial of a dash out job for as long as possible. It’s not that I’m scared exactly ....... !
