Digital Display

[gregers]

hi peeps have been hunting through ebay and came across someone advertising,

unlocking your digital dash ie miles left in tank etc etc,is this something thats mentioned in the handbooks that ive missed?

just wondered if its worth doing or not?

Insert the Key but do not turn it on

 

Press and hold the Mileage Meter Reset Button.

 

While holding the reset button, start your car and continue to hold the button.

 

Within 10 seconds, the display should change to "test" on the LCD readout.and the needles will do a full sweeping.

 

Release the Button

 

 

 

By pressing the button you can now cycle through 17 different modes

 

 

 

1.Shows a Gauge Sweep

 

2. Shows all 8's on the LCD (LCD TEST)

 

3. Illuminates all the bulbs on the dash

 

4. Displays hexadecimal value for ROM level

 

5. Displays the hexadecimal value for EE level

 

6. Shows DTC (Diagnostic Trouble Code)

 

7. Digital Speedometer - MPH

 

8. Digital Speedometer - KPH

 

9. N/A

 

10. Digital tachometer

 

11.Fuel volume

 

12. Engine coolant temperature

 

13. Battery voltage

 

14. ABS fail

 

15. Electronic brake distribution (EBD) failure

 

16. Illumination

 

17. Crank Sense

 

All will go back to normal once ignition is switched back off

 

 

ONE ASSUMES THIS ONLY WORKS ON FORDS NOT VW's
