I've just moved into a new house. My gas meter has no numbers showing on the display, does anyone have any idea how to read it? Picture attached.

Do you think it might be a smart meter?

Looks like a smart meter. If you press the A button it should light up with your reading.

Found this online:

If your meter is an EDMI GS-60B the screen will be blank. To display the reading press the right hand of the two grey buttons. It may be necessary to hold the button down for a few seconds. The display is maintained for 3 seconds. To display the reading again press the button again.

Not A sorry, the one that's pointing up. ^

@dementedpixie I have no idea! My electricity meter has numbers though ...

I've looked at so many types of meter online and all of them seem to have a button you press so that you get a display ...

Confirmation that it's the right hand button you press

@FallenSky thank you - I was confused as when I googled I found references to button A. Will go and press the up arrow!

Ps it is a smart meter

I'm back from the under stairs cupboard. Sadly pressing that button did nothing.

Even pressing and holding the button?

Can a neighbour or friend help?
Or can you contact your gas supplier ?

Apparently smart meters have a finite battery life so it could have run out too

Success, I held it for about 30 seconds and it worked. Thanks everyone!

That's good. Glad it worked eventually
