Hello everybody. Is there any particular reason for the rev-counter/tachometerand 'economy' indicator to have stopped working completely, after disconnecting the battery last weekend for a slow overnight recharge ? Any pointers would be very welcome. The fuses look OK Many thanks in advance Andrew Allen >Hello everybody. > [quoted text clipped - 7 lines] > >Andrew Allen Andrew, most likely old/fault y batteries in the SI board do a google search. http://www.bmwe30.net/cgi-bin/datacgi/database.cgi?file=articles&report=view&ID= 00043&Section=02 keith > Is there any particular reason for the rev-counter/tachometerand > 'economy' indicator to have stopped working completely, after > disconnecting the battery last weekend for a slow overnight recharge ? The SI batteries have probably died. You need to fit new AA size NICADs with solder tags just behind the service indicator lights. Charge them before installation. I had a 525e with the same fault.

Oh well, I suppose I'll have to dive into the entrails of the dash board again ! Thanks again Andrew |
