Hi guys,
have a 2008 L200 with manual gearbox. First the alternator had a shortcut and the batteries were discharged (first we thought that the problem was the batteries and charging them again and again and jump starting the car with cables from another car). Changed the alternator to a new one. After this (or at the same time as the alternator broke down) the speedometer started to work spontaneous on and off and after a while stopped working totally.
Read the Error codes "low/no speed signal". Changed the speed sensor in the gearbox. But still the same error code.
Had a mechanic check the cables and everything seems to be fine with them. Any ideas? Could the ECU had a turn after trying to jump start the cars with cables? or when the alternator had a short cut?
