I've just got 'round to changing the clock in the Tuscan. The display is now showing the correct time but if I cycle through to the other displays (revs, temp details etc) the display shows "... awaiting data..." When the car is turned on, the inital display is okay.

I'm also getting "!Warning 0 Volts!" from time to time.

Please tell me this isn't a back to Blackpool job.

The 0 volts warning can come up sometimes and can be cleared by turning the R/H knob. The awaiting data sounds like you are still in the set-up mode on the pod, try going back into & then out of the set-up mode.

I tried doing the set up routine again but to no avail.

Just to check I'm doing the right thing .....

1. Press the right hand knob until the menu appears.
2. Make required changes
3. Press fog light for 5 seconds to set

Um, yes. Now reading the handbook.

Hold the right button seems to do nothing.

I think (no manual) to hand, that you press both buttons again to exit the setup mode.

Might be totally wrong though.

I think you press the two together ie RH Knob & fog light to go into the set up menu.Best have a look in the manual.

Did it all again with handbook in hand, so to speak.

Still getting "...awaiting data..." and no menu. Now when I turn on the ignition I'm getting Diagnostic code 'O'.

Isn't 'O' something to do with digital/analogue connection failing?

Better go and look in FAQ's.

O - No communications between analogue and control


Steve, looking at the FAQ's it appears you had code 'O' in your early days. Please tell me it's something easy to fix. I really don't want to go to Blackpool this summer!

Just had a chat with the Service Manager at Gorners, he suggested disconnecting the battery and letting the system reset itself. If this fails then it will be a trip to Blackpool as he suspects one of the circuit boards may have failed. Humph.

Going for a now, will play with the battery when the sun has gone in.

whilst we're on the topic of the LCD display, does anyone know how to reset the Tripometer?

Rotate the lcd function button, ie the one on the right that you press to change the screen, anticlockwise.

Haven't tried it yet, hate to admit but I'm afraid something else will go wrong if I do! I can live without a rev counter.

Have you had the 'zorst fixed yet?

Going in on Friday for 24000 service, air-con gassing and hopefully fixing the zorst, I can almost hear the neighbours cheering as I type!

Only just saw this bit.....Did have a code O, never caused any problems for me. The analogue/digital connection (as code O indicates) might be significant though, as at 130mph (so I've been told) in my car the analogue speedo whizzes back to zero then up again, then down again etc. But at 150 it all settles down again (also so I've been told). The digital speedo was always OK. Decided to get the speedo fixed as we speak, as its a warranty item, plus get the latest pod software installed.

Annoyingly, the pod has gone back to Blackpool (2 weeks ago), and the response is all efforts are diverted to the motorshow. Wish I had the benefit of hindsight, and chosen to wait another couple of weeks....especially with the fine weather we're having at the moment.

So what's the latest with yours Jo?
