Let me check tonight and I'll let you know. John |

At the risk of getting slapped upside the head - are you sure it is dead? Seems to be more common that the angle drive fails.

My speedo works, but its erratic, odo doesn't work. Its a 150 type speedo. Would prefer to speedo to work reliably, with odo for insurance reasons. Will check out the 944 option. Does the 944 need calibration?
