I can't display mine, unless I look really hard at it. I can see them, but the backlights are dead.

I know, I can change the bulbs, but you have to take the climate panel out and to do that, the sides have to come out etc etc. I cannot see how the front wood/plastic panel comes out, and I do not want to break it trying. (hint, hint)

I changed the bulbs on my V8, but that was much easier!

For those who didn't spot the link above here is the information you require.

Changing Degree Temperature Display

Press and hold the recirculation button (1). Then press the temperature up ("+") button (3) to switch between degrees Celsius & Fahrenheit on the Climate Control Temperature and Instrument Panel Outside Temperature displays.

Accessing On-Board Diagnostic codes

Press and hold the recirculation button (1). Then press the manual flow control up arrow (2). You should see a 1c. Press the temperature up ("+") or down ("-") buttons (3) to select a code number. Then press the recirculation button (1)again. The value should display. Press the temperature up or down button (3) again to display another code.

NOTE: Air Flow Motor (V 71) and Potentiometer (G 113) are not installed in USA/Canada vehicles. Disregard values displayed for these components.

Sorted, now just to turn that into a PDF and list the little lot on eBay and off I go to order my Lamborghini from the profit I make from all those suckers!!!

Erm must stop typing what I'm thinking ... wink.gif

Damn it!

You figured out how I bought mine!

Ah Ha, all very interesting but........... a quick scan of the info did not reveal the code for vehicle speed in MPH (code 17 is for Speed in KPH). Maybe I missed it. But for those hard of seeing, is there a code for the vehicle speed displayed in MPH? And how do I get the display back to the 'norm' again? confused.gif

It doesn't display MPH I'm afraid. Thats another thing they forget to tell you when they try and sell you this "top secret" information on ebay or wherever wink.gif

To get it back to normal, press the Recirculation button (1) and the manual airflow 'up' (2) button together and all will return to normal 169144-ok.gif
