No gear indicator display?
« on: May 16, 2011, 05:01:47 PM »
I have a TRE so I only get a display of "N" or "OD" however, suddenly I get nothing. Has anyone encountered this and any suggestions as to where to start looking for a fix?? I hope it's as simple as a bulb burned out.

I think I would disconnect the Tre and then see if the problem still exists.

I don't think so Phil- the gear indicator is part of the LCD display and can't 'burn out' by itself.

My thought would be to remove the TRE and see what the display does. One thing at a time.
