Elise S2 Odometer Reading Retrival

[hethel8]

Hi Guys,

I'm new to the Piston Heads Forums and would like to ask your advice Re my Elise S2 2001 K Series.

It had an alternator regulator failure a few days ago, which has resulted in a new alternator unit being fitted.

During the incident itself, the dash went off completely and restarted a couple of times.

Unfortunately (horror) the mileage reading on the Odometer has returned to zero.

I am uncertain as to whether this must be re entered externally, or whether it can be retrieved.

Any ideas at all? It would be very much appreciated!

Kind Regards

Simon

Hi Simon,
I have just recently changed a broken speedo/instrument cluster on a 996 Porsche .The replacement part was as obviously set to zero so in order to keep everything correct I called a speedo correction guy out.£120 later the speedo was correct mileage although think he was surprised as not usual practice for him to wind forward!Cheers.

Most speedo correction guys won't do the stack that's in the Elise/Exige.

If you can find one, then do post up as there are lots of people who have had Stack problems.

Mileage stays in the clocks ..so best bet is to buy a secondhand set off ebay for about 50 Quid that is close to your mileage or just document what's happened in your service history.
... 000 miles seems good to me ! ;-)

I had the same problem on my 2006 S2. I was lucky enough to find a local chap (Bishops Waltham, Hampshire) who returned the mileage to it's correct reading. His number is 07920 452701. I hope this helps.

Main dealers can do it on a Toyota one so probably can for K too
