Thumbs up Does your B2 Reset Under Heavy Driving?

Mine did, so I called Origin.

Apparently it's a known problem, and many were recalled. They now fit much stronger magnets in the base unit.

They send them out Free, and then you just under 2 screws and pop them in.


Mine has been fine ever since!

Thanks for that, never had the problem before until Saturday coming back from the Rallyday along the M4 (was going just a little bit faster than i usally do , well there was a Escort Cossie behind me) and it jumped out a couple of times.

By the way have you got any footage of Saturday Thanks Granby

When did you get your B2 i.e. batch date ?
Mine rattles, so I use blutac anyway.
