    Default Evanta car old timer repro

    Customer sent me a Evanta dash (never heard of it) should be 160km on it, i found a 24256 inside (hard to remove could not seperate the boards). He needs 7228km because of the low actual km i can not find the km's . Anyone saw this dash before?

    Try turning on the instrument panel without a car to see the original mileage (miles, km?)

    ON TOPIC:-

    evanta motor company was owned by @antanstead who now does "wheeler dealers"
    pleased they went bust as they blocked me on twitter.

    they moved around a bit and now called jowests classic cars or something
    either way I'm still blocked on their twitter feed.

    car mechanicals are jaguar and Aston martin running carbs in 2017! Then charging
    £100,000 and the rest for something with no abs etc

    bloke only replied once to my tweets and that was to say he blocked me from
    their feed.

    nice photo and info, thanks

    thanks i found the same location and divider but it isn't common. I think i must let the customer drive some km/miles. Don't want to experiment with pinouts and a pusle generator, when something happens there are no spares over here. Will let you know next week.

    i powered up the dash it gives 173,9 (miles or km), I think its adress 41,42,43 because when i change these adresses the display does give km's anymeore, if i change other adresses it still gives the same value. Must be a cs.

    I brought the clock to the customer to let him drive 10km and then bring it back. Afterwards i could put a wave on the dash to let it count, but i forgot. Now have to wait for the customer, still no reply. I think he drive so many miles as he needed by now :-).
