Traffic Master

:angry:

having finally fitted a towbar - and wiring (see other posts) I had to disconnect the battery and since then i have had the trafficmaster woman telling me that trafficmaster blah blah blah has expired - if I press the TM button she repeats it all over agin and again until I allow her to finish - typical woman LOL

i haven't had this car since new but when I got it in january the traffic master worked - has the disconnection of the battyer affected it in some way? or has it simply expired? also how much does it cost to re-instate it?

cheers

Have a look there for costs.

 

You might want to turn the volume down on the unit to stop it annoying you, if you want to disable it totally you will find the control unit situated above the glovebox.

I don't know if you are still suffering but someone out there must still be. I did not want to renew and the cost is about £40.00 per annum I believe. She was driving me mad so I investigated disbling the unit. I found the traffic-master unit under the dashboard above the glovebox. It's necessary to remove the glovebox and feel upwards to find the unit which is a small black box slid onto a plate. Carefully slide it off and lower it down so you can see the cable harness connections. We found that by cutting the green wire at pin 3 of the connector and insulating both ends so that it can be re-enabled in the future will remove the 12V supply to the unit and shut her up.

If the traffic master is getting on your tits. Remove the glove box and look straght a head and youl see a black box just unplug it and thats the traff/master off. If you want it back on just plug it back in and its sbout £5o ish a year for the trafic master licence

Each time you disconnect the battery you will have to re-enter your code number if you did not get it when you got the car see if the last owner has it

I didn't think the newer ones needed the nuber entered each time. Any way, it only lasts for a year and is about £30 + VAT to renew.

 

If you go to http://www.trafficmaster.net/login.asp and click on the Oracle/Freeway renew button, all should be explained.

 

Keepn a record of the PIN you get in case it does forget. However, normally Trafficmaster doesn't make a lot of noise so sometimes this is a warning that the battery is getting tired.

 

If you press the Trafficmaster button twice you can flip through the modes and choose manual mode which means it only talks when you press the button. If you press the button 3 times you can adjust the volume, so you can pick level 0 or 1 and then ignore it.
