Default Flashing "P" on dash??
On my 91 C2 Tip coupe, a flashing "P" appears on the on board computer readout in the upper left hand corner. I can't find out from the owners manual what it is. Once it appears I can't change the readout to see Mileage, Distance to empty, temperature...etc.. Anyone know why it pops up?? Thanks

Patience....Grasshoppa! 10 hours and 2 bumps

My P-car likes to sleep in late on the weekends. I'll go take a look soon.

In the meantime.....NO PIX.....NO ANSWERS! (and yes, I checked all 23 of your previous posts)

Sorry - no luck in finding anything about the "P". I pushed the selector lever back, to lite up all of the symbols, but no "P" appeared.
Also, none of my ref. books state anything about it either.

Now, about those obligatory pictures......................???

I will load pics as soon as admin sends me my login stuff. Maybe next time it flashes I will try and get a pic while the "P" is illuminated.

How common is the on board computer? I have seen the pics in Adrian's book, but all the dash pictures users have posted showed the computer-less dash, which is what I have.

You have a defect in your OBC, it can be repaired by various companies in Germany.
