A TX2 went in for a fortnight to have the top end rebuilt. The battery was left disconnected, so when the cab was picked up the meter was screwed up.

Help from a very helpful guy in Guildford was sought, and after pin numbers were entered the meter looks now looks ok, and will put up the start tariff up when started, but will only clock waiting time thereafter.

The doors lock when moving as they should, and the speedo is working, the meter does not register any pulses though any ideas what may be wrong??

Its an MR400 meter

I had this problem with a MR400 and the problem was so simple to sort, it's just that I can't remember what it was. #-o

Having just phoned the fitter it appears my solution wouldn't work yours is a LTI factory fit straight to the ECU. So it might mean going to the nearest authorized agent. :sad:

Good idea, anyone dealing with anything LTI shouldn't be using cash. [-X

Meter isn't getting a pulse, wherever it takes it from.
Check for a loose plug on the back of the meter, or a loose pulse wire (usually white or yellow)
