#1: PPT30 no display Author: 206boyracer, Location: Sunny CornwallPosted: Wed Jul 04, 2012 10:40 am ---- Hi I have a problem with my PPT30 it lights up but no digits or information is displayed. I took my clocks out and repaired them recently and have not used the car since. It worked after I repaired the clocks but not now. Are the two linked up? Could I have damaged something behind the clocks when I had them apart. Or is it just bad luck and my ppt30 is now broke too?
#2: Re: PPT30 no display Author: paul_c, Location: UKPosted: Wed Jul 04, 2012 10:57 am ---- I'd say its fairly certain the two are linked. Why not take them out again and check the connection to the display unit? What did you need to do to the clocks, ie why were they broken to require a repair?

The ribbon on the ppt is creased could this be it or would that just make the display bitty? It's not damaged all along just in the middle. God I hate electrics.

Hope I don't need a new one. I haven't taken my mfd apart until now so can't understand how it's got damaged.
