Multifuntion trip computer
Hi all
I recently went away and when i came to take out the old girl, the battery was flat - a quick charge and away we went however the MFA LED display was non readable then has completely gone. turns out the earth connection was draining the life out of the battery.
What i want to find out is - does the MFA have its own battery (like a watch battery) and its just coincidence of is there a fuse i can change to make it right again?
Its really annoying as the little things like this make the difference.
thanks in advance for anyone who replys.
cheers
Matt

No it doesn`t have its own battery.Try disconnecting the battery for a few minutes then connect again,then it may reset .

Uses the cars battery to maintain the memory. If a complete reset does not help, try checking all the wiring. If that does not show any problems then the MFA just might be going bad.
