That Traffic Master bitch
« on: 05 July 2011, 09:57:06 »
Once again the annoying Traffic Master voice has started to come on with every time I try to start the car!
I have rang them on the number they gave to cancel the service but still it goes on and on......Or it did!
THis morning having had another vdose cof her bloody whining waffle I took out the dash switch and pulled gently on the wire until I had tracede where it led. Afetr removing the lower dash covers I eventually found the magic box and then CUT ITS THROAT.
I then cut the wires from the rear of the switch and put it back until I can get a proper blank for the hole.
 :y ;D ;D ;D Lovely, lovely quietness now when I start the car and no more pitiful whining of a frustrated boring 'lady'.
My TomTom has a far better traffic service anyway.......and a far more pleasing voice.... ;)

No need to cut looms, unplugging would have been easier ;)

It's normally a sign your battery is getting tired....

...and earnt you a few quid in the process as plenty of people like the TM service.

Personally I find the Tom Tom service adequate, but no better than TM, although it has the advantage of working further in advance.

But there's not really a lot in it TBH, hardly surprising really when you consider that it's using the same sensors for a large proportion of it's information ;) ;)

Let me fill you in on what's been happening.

Nothing interesting.

It's still a forum for middle-aged men with a penchant for old cars and camping. ;D

Roy Tupper turned out to be Albs.

The person who caused all the trouble with the admins was Albs.

The biggest arselicker on here is Albs.
