Some say the odometer on the Honda Odyssey does not have a bulb and that if the odometer light fails, you have to replace the entire circuit board for the odometer, which costs about $350 from the dealer. That is incorrect. There is a separate backlight for the Odometer - it runs ~$5 but requires ~$100 in labor (1 hr install time) (12/30/08).
7/09 : I changed one in a 2000 Odyssey. I first took off both the left (by power door switches) and right (A/C) panels - these pull/pryl off. Then I took off the long dash unit (9 screws or so). Then I took out the speedmeter assembly (4 screws). and replaced the small black bulb ( $6 at the Honda dealer). The whole job took ~1 hour - was not that hard! You should replace the black bulb in the A/C panel as well while your at it (these twist 1/2 turn)!

It indicates transmissions problems. Had this happen at 103,000 km on our 2002 Honday Odyssey and had to replace the entire transmission.

There is a problem with the transmission and you need to get it to either honda or a mechanic.

push in and hold the odometer reset button, then turn ignition key until all your dash board lights (enginge, gen, check eng, etc) come on. Wait until oil change light starts flashing, release odometer button. Shut off ignition. done.
