Mileage and speed rev dials FIXED - Welshy_Pete - 06-03-2016
Hello I noticed on my 306 hdi sometimes when starting the car near the mileage clock it will show like a alarm clock or timer thing. The rev and speed counter both move up from 0 to the same place near max higher up then go back down to normal?
Just seeing what this means?
Thanks

poor battery voltage to the clocks
could be a few things from
bad earths
bad connections
poor battery

mine does that too sometimes. I take the view the battery is a bit low.
got myself a dash solar panel to compensate a little.

I've checked the battery while engine running and off the battery 13v+ when off when on 15v+ so the battery good.
I've cleaned the connections on the battery, 2 earth's below the battery also earth near driver front headlamp.
There anymore earths or connections to try and clean.

shouldn't have 15+ on the battery!!! you need a new rectifier on the back of the alternator
