Recommended Posts

Just taken my car for its sva test and it failed for showing the wrong speed can these clocks be calibrated .The tester also failed for not padding the chasis rail that runs across the footwell by your knees just under the fuse box ☹️

Yes they can be reprogrammed.

 

You press the black trip reset button on the speedo. This needs to be held down during turing on the ignition

 

The numbers will flash one after the other

 

You press the button to increment the numbers does roll round

 

Need correct number from Caterham for exact wheel tyre combination

 

Mine came with number 8680 and was changed to 49306 so would have been way off. Inspector comlimented my on accuracy of speedo without propmpting.

 

Also did my SVA yesterday and failed on no numberplate light and a few bits of SVA sharpe edge trim

 

Will do retest next week

Glad you got it in before the IVA. Appear to be simple fixes for retest. Gaffer tape some pipe lagging on the offending item in the passenger footwell?

Should be able to get a retest pretty quickly and able to bring it to next LADS meet on 6.5.09 😬
