hello all! the trip computer on my omega does not work and was wondering if there is any way to fix it! the problems are as follows

1, check coolant level is displayed  (coolant is full)
2, check headlight and tail light  (both fine too)
3, digital speedo does not work


any ideas please, cheers, gary!!

P.S just been out for a fag and had a look! on my omega the o/s front and rear has large weights on the rims and the n/s front has a medium weight and the n/s rear has a small weight??? but on my ford galaxy the o/s front and rear has weights on and the n/s has none at all and it has no probs at all! the mind boggles :-/ :-?

Omega General Help / Re: tappy engine

« on: 23 October 2007, 20:05:57 »

ok at last! i didnt know that oil ran through the rad to cool i thought coolant ran through the box (dont laugh) so the pipes did need to go on the rad after all so some tit has put the wrong rad on before!.  the oil was red after i let some flow out so ive connected it all up and the box seems better now when i drive. i will change the box oil at the weekend just to make sure. can anyone tell me how to change the oil and filter on the box? im very good with cars if im told how to do it. thanks for all your help folks

ive just removed the bypass pipe from the pipes that lead to the gearbox and theres a bit of oil coming out(light brown oil) should i connect these pipes to the rad even though theres a little oil coming out?
