Elan register - a problem.

PostPost by: Bitsilly » Wed Oct 04, 2023 4:09 pm

I’m trying to add my Sprint to the register but it will not accept my chassis number.
The chassis is lotus replaced so starts LR then 3 digits.
The computer only accepts the original format.
Any ideas?
Cheers

I think the register is expecting you to enter the unit number which can be found on the engraved plate in the engine compartment or on the registration document. The chassis number is not necessary.
Hope this helps

It is the unit number. I should change that description as it messes people up once or twice a year.

As for the photos, what size are you trying to upload? I can look to see what upping the size limit will do.

My photos are from an iPhone. They are frequently too big to upload unfortunately.
I used to use online sites to reduce the MB of each but the sites are gone now or are too limited in what they output.

With my 15 year old cheapo digital camera I can turn the sensitivity down to 1Mega pixel. This is ideal for small photos like ebay or this forum. Good for memory cards as well. Surely, an expensive device like an i phone will do that. Or is it not as good as they say after all. I am not a fan!!
