at some point replaced by a Motorola instrument, which no longer works.

yet). We were told by the dealer that it's a "trial-by-error" thing. The
mechanic figured out the basic hook-up. However, with regard to setting the 9
calibrating switches on the device, after a couple of hours of going around and
around the block with the mechanic stopping and making adjustment after
adjustment (e.g., because the device was reading 70 mph when the coach was going
20 mph, for example), we realized the maddening absurdity of the situation
because the number of combinations of those 9 switches is endless. Because we
are good customers, the mechanic kindly agreed not to charge us for all this
needless waste of time.
