It's been a few years since I had an XM. I've bought an early Series 2 CT Turbo Exclusive and doing a bit of fettling. I used to be on the Yahoo XM Group, which you could set up to send a digest to your email account. I couldn't seem to find out how to do this on this forum. Have I missed something?

I'm trying to fix the dot matrix at the moment - I have most of hte unit working, but the ribbon connector is somewhat damaged where it meets the PCB. Anyone got a solution or a screen with the connector?

Regards

Frech E-Bay has a solution, it is a small peice of rubber conductive strip which replaces the failed foil conecetor. This is in fact the same type of conductive strip that the S1 displays use (although a differnt shape/size). It is very expensive for what it is (about £30 IIRC) but I have used one and it does the job and is likely to last far longer than the original

Of all the things I have lost I think I miss my mind the most

Half of all 1994 S2 2.0 TCT Exclusive Manuals remaining, where is the other one?
1992 Range Rover V8 Vogue SE LPG
1985 Golf GTI 8v
1975 MG Midget
1959 Austin Healey Sprite
