Most modern cars have electronic dashboards with digital odometer displays. The car manufacturers use these because they are cheaper to produce than a mechanical dashboard and easier to fit into the car, as there is no mechanical speedometer cable. This new technology has its own problems though. Electrical pulses in the cars wiring can cause the dashboard data, which is stored internally on an EEPROM (Electrically Erasable Programmable Read Only Memory), to become corrupted.

This corruption could happen for a number of reasons:  • the battery was discharged and the vehicle had been jump started  • the dashboard may be damaged in a collision or through vandalism  • the dashboard may develop an electrical fault  • new engine had been fitted. In these examples, the corruption of the information held in the EEPROM may mean that the mileage displayed on the digital odometer  is now incorrect.

Mileage correction may also be necessary where a replacement cluster has been purchased, either new or second hand. If it's a new one it will have zero km/miles on it. If it's a second hand one the reading displayed is also likely to be different to the original thus requiring a correction.

SpeedoFix is able to fix incorrect reading by using  latest technologies. Some corrections can be done through OBD-II (no need to remove any units from the vehicle). We have equipment that supports most of the devices used in car electronics.
