The Absinthe Fairy 0 Posted June 29, 2004 Report Share Posted June 29, 2004 Apologies if this should be interior...Regarding the fuel computer-does it show mpg calculated from last reset of the trip button, or from when you start the engine againon a new journey? Other half reckons it is from trip re set but I'm not so sure.... Link to post Share on other sites
Pittuf 0 Posted June 29, 2004 Report Share Posted June 29, 2004 You have 2 settings. If you put the switch to 1 it will measure from each time you start the car.If you switch it to 2 it will measure from the last time you reset it.I assume you know how to reset but if not, hold the switch as far left or right as possible for a couple of seconds, depending on whether you want to reset 1 or 2.Hope this helps :-) Link to post Share on other sites
jte 0 Posted June 29, 2004 Report Share Posted June 29, 2004 Trip no. 1 shows data from when you start the engine (it resets after 2 hours of the ignition being turned off)Trip no. 2 shows data from the last reset no matter what. Link to post Share on other sites
The Absinthe Fairy 0 Posted June 29, 2004 Author Report Share Posted June 29, 2004 Fantastic- thankyouThat was going to be my other question- what was the 0,1,2 slide for- we were thinking it was adjustment for widescreen wiper interval lolSo much to learn (sigh)xcx Link to post Share on other sites
jte 0 Posted June 29, 2004 Report Share Posted June 29, 2004 Also the trip computer has some hidden things like a digital rev counter.Turn the ignition on Hold down the button that switches between total miles and trip display (opposite the clock adjustment buttons) keep holding it down and turn the igntion off then still holding the button down start the engine. The display should change and by pressing the same button you can scroll through about 9 things. Quite pointless but interesting.I think this may be similar to the way in which the service interval indicator is reset/changed. Link to post Share on other sites
jte 0 Posted June 29, 2004 Report Share Posted June 29, 2004 adjustment for widescreen wiper intervalNext question?Turn the wipers to intermitant - pull stalk down.Turn back to off, wait desired time and then turn back to intermitant. The time the wipers were off in the middle will be the new interval. works from 1 to 20 seconds and resets to about 7 when the ignition is turned off. Link to post Share on other sites
