Greetings from Munich again gentlemen, and the odd lady or two! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)
Can someone tell me what's up with the trip odometer on my KM speedo gauge? Is there seriously no reset button? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/blink.gif) Thanks! Mike |

Turn clockwise to reset...keep turning until all the numerals are caught and reset to zero. As has been cautioned before, don't reset the trip odometer (after you reinstall) when the car is moving. There is a good article in the archives here or on the Pelican forum about speedometer repair. I followed the thread and repaired my non-working odometer a couple of years ago. Still works great.

I got it... the last digit next to the red tenths doesnt want to budge to "0" but that is ok.... it shows 2 miles on the trip meter... i sure would like to zero it out on the odometer end. What grease did you use.. i read somewhere that the lithium grease is not good to use... what do you suggest ? This is not my photo.. its from another thread (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads/post-20845-1495035927_thumb.jpg) |
