Open day Wolverhampton garage

Managed to set the Merc to read the 560.

You need a degree to work out how to set one of electronic displays.

One of the drivers tried to show me.

Mind you I got him to set 4001 on the 529 for a photo but I don't know if it turned out ok or not yet!

NX use Deric+ to set their Hanover Displays, don't they? (Deric+ is the 3 button controller)
I'm sure it's something like:

"Press 'F/E', then Press < ^ < < ^ to set to 0101" which i'm sure is the test? Or somewhere along those lines...

Deric is the NXWM one, Eric is the one First Worcester have and the dg3 is the one Pensnett have on one of the enviros...

Your welcome Tom. Thanks for coming.

Westy · July 20, 2014, 05:09:27 PM

Someone managed to find the Thomas More & Dicky Dodd displays on the hybrid!

On the B6, destinations found were Pattingham & strangely Essington via Wednesfield.

Now I know Twm used to run to Pattingham (Old 516 & 517) but when was Essington served by Twm last?

Great day by the way.

domino.99 · July 20, 2014, 05:10:12 PM

I also got a B6 to read 126 birmingham city centre via roseville and dudley.

A big thankyou to everyone who attended the Open day.

I believe it was a huge success I hear the figure at the moment stands at around £470 to go to the Air Ambulance so a big thankyou to all.

Did anybody spot the arrival of the MD?

Thanks again.
