Q. What is recalibration?
Recalibration
becomes necessary when the instrument dials on your dashboard
malfunction. For example, the fuel gauge may be showing 1/4 full after
you have filled the vehicle up, or it may even stop working altogether.
This can also happen to other gauges and dials. That's where we can
help by electronically recalibrating the dashboard to either restore
faulty gauges and dials. Q. Why do I need this service?
There
are many reasons why you might need this service. For example, your
dashboard might develop an electrical fault, be damaged in a collision
or even be vandalized, resulting in an incorrect mileage being shown on
your odometer or dashboard. You might therefore purchase either a new
or second hand dashboard. What happens? If it's a new one it will have
0 miles on it. If it's a second hand one it could have 200,000 miles on
it! Naturally you want it to show the correct mileage and that's where
we can help, by electronically placing new mileage information into the
dashboard. Q. Is it legal?
It
is not illegal to change the mileage on your own personal vehicle for
the above reasons. It IS illegal if you knowingly sell the vehicle with
mileage either above or below what is has actually covered. We can take
no part in such activity. Q. Why is our service better than many others?
Our
service is better because many of our competitors actually remove the
memory chip that contains the mileage information as a matter of
course, thereby leaving burn marks, solder marks and other unsightly
evidence. Our method does not require this (for 99% of cars) and is
therefore undetectable. Furthermore, many of our competitors wipe all
the information off the memory chip which contains additional details
such as chassis numbers and VIN numbers. Our method leaves that
information intact! We also guarantee all our work. Q. How do I get it done?
In
most cases we offer a while you wait service so just contact us to book
your car in. If you cannot bring the car to us, then it is also
possible for you to send the dashboard via mail. Please email us for
more information on the postal service. How much does it cost
The cost varies from model to model depending on the degree of difficulty and age of vehicle. Please email us for a quote. All
types of Dashboards can be recalibrated and reprogrammed. Some vehicles
can be reprogrammed by using the vehicles own diagnostic socket, others
need the dash removing in order to get to the eeprom. Why would you want to have yours reprogrammed ? Simply like most thing they can and do go faulty. These are some of the many vehicle manufactories that we can do :-
