I know I'm slow but can you reset the tripometer on the 914-4? If you can I have been unable to figure out how.

Thanks!

Just a further note, do NOT reset the trip meter while the car is moving, with time it will screw up the whole odometer.

Found it but to work at it a bit to get it to move. Must not have been used much as it was a little corroded but works smooth now!
