WEll i posted a while back about my speedo, running right round to 180MPH when i was driving
well this has happened a few times more since, but untill yesterday i didnt realise this has been happening in a straight line!
yesterday night i was approaching a big roundabout and it was late and clear probably doing 35 - 40mph round it. One hand on steering wheel,one on gear stick when the speedo flew up to 180mph.
What i didnt know is the power steering assist isnt as much at this speed, to stop people giving it too much turn and loosing it.
Well the steering went to what basically is no assist and ripped right out of my hand. Luckerly i was in alert mode and the roundabout is wide (fleetsbridge for the bournemouth lot) none the less i shot across 2 of the lanes out of control, until i got hold of wheel and guided myself on a exit i wasnt going for!
Anyway i need serious help now, is there wires i can check to see if there loose or where is the chip?!? could it be buggered?!? I have been out for 40 mile drive today and all seems fine.
If this was on a smaller roundabout i would not of been so lucky!
In technical for answers on the questions above and what i can do!
cheers
James
