Ok, ive just installed a trip computer in the xr all functions work. so my question is;

does the trip meter beep when you press a button? i bought this second hand and not sure if its working properly.

i ask this because the factory fit trip meter in my ed Fairmont ghia used to beep whenever you pressed a button.


cheers
