Odometers

Where is trip odometer reset button on vauxhall insignia

Borrrow a GPS, drive somewhere, compare the distance.

I have the same problem a 2000 Saturn sc2 the odometer is diglital lights, regesters 50046 and does not change. Does anyone know if I can change with a junk yard cluster and have it work? dealer seams to think it,s the cluster but wants 500 dollars. would the black box send the correct milage on the car now or would the odometer show the milage from the salvage unit? Or would it not work at all. Sory to answer a question with a question Thanks all Pete

The speedometer is a part that commonly fails on the 1994-1997 Accord. Buy a used cluster on eBay for about $80 from a reputable seller, and swap it yourself. The wiring on your car is probably fine, as well as the speed sensor on the transmission.

999,999

Looking at the dash board, there are a couple screws on top and a couple clips on bottom. Remove these after lower the steering column tilt and carefully slide dash unit out. remove top three connectors if needed to access the back. I think you will see several bulbs and I think it will be one of the ones toward the center. You may want to pick up a bulb at the dealer first so you know you have the right one. I believe the one you want is a 1.26 watt bulb for the display.

I don't believe there is one. I believe its run electronically. The odometer cable does exist, but it is connected to the transmission, not the engine.

I have pulled apart Four (4) differect Speedometers in which the odometers did not work. ALL of them had the inside RED gear basically disintegrated. Just remove the odometer 2 screws. Then remove the stepper motor, 2 screws. There you will see it (inside a white gear) disintegrated. I will probably be manufacturing the gear & rebuilding the odometer. Yes you quessed it, making a new gear ! YUK !

CHECK THE SPEED SENSOR TO MAKE SURE IT IS HOOKED UP AND DO AN OHMS TEST ON IT TO MAKE SURE IT ISNT BAD

i have a 1990 Isuzu trooper as well and the speedometer and odometer also quit working, they both come off of a mechanical cable that is attached to the drive train. that cable breaks, and you lose both speed and odometer indications. they are extremely difficult to find, so if you do, write me back...

This is pretty easy and you can do it yourself.

Step 1: Work light, Torx driver, panel popper, 90 degree pick and ratchet with extension. Gather the tools you'll need for the job.

Step 2: Tilt steering wheel all the way down to give yourself as much room as possible to work.

Step 3: Pull headlight knob all the way out. Rotate until you see a narrow slot along the side.

Step 4: Insert 90 degree pick in slot. Work the pick behind the metal retaining clip inside, gently pulling it up as you simultaneously pull off the headlight knob. (Just pulling the knob off can cause damage to the retaining clip, meaning the knob in future will fall off onto the floor every time you try to use it).

Step 5: Using the T20 Torx driver, remove the top two visible screws from the instrument cluster bezel.

Step 6:Instrument cluster with the bezel removed. Using a flat screwdriver or panel popper, carefully pry up the edges of the bezel until you can work it completely free. Start at the top where the screws were, as this area should be loose enough to insert the panel popper. Take your time! There are five clips holding the bezel in place; so it's important to work all the way around to loosen every clip. You don't want to pull up too soon and cause the bezel to crack.

Step 7: Now you have access to the instrument cluster. Using the 7mm socket, remove the 4 hex screws that are located at each corner.

Step 8: Grab edges of the cluster and pull out slightly. Do not pull all the way out. Rotate the cluster so that the gauges are upright. This will help you maneuver the cluster farther out and give you the easiest access to the connectors at the back.

Step 9: The cluster of wires will lead you to the connectors. There are two electrical connectors at the back, and you'll see lots of wires extending from these connectors to the car. Disconnect them by pushing the tab button on the top of each connector and pulling straight out. (Connectors are different colors and shapes, so you can't put them back in the wrong place).

Step 10: You can now carefully remove the entire cluster from the car. To insert a new cluster, simply follow Steps 4 through 8 in reverse. See the Tips and Warnings sections.

Step 11: Make sure the headlight switch stem is extended when you reattach the bezel. It makes it easier to align the knob over the stem and clip, and click back into place.

with difficulty :P

If you're asking about the odometer, versus the TRIP odometer, you can't reset it. It's a federal crime to mess with them.

If you've replaced an engine, for example, and want to be able to log how many miles are going on it, the best you can do is to write down the existing milage and count from there. OR, you can set the trip odometer to zero and use it to count new engine miles. This isn't real dependable as it may become reset. Also, I'm not sure how high the trip meter will count.

Is the dome light burnt out? Mine said FUSE a lot until I replaced the dome light and then it stopped.

Check the fuse labeled IOD in the under hood fuse box for being burnt or mis-installed.

I believe that 1995 was the last year for a conventional speedometer cable on a Ford Explorer , and then Ford went to an electronic speedometer with a vehicle speed sensor

I would always start with fuses. Then I would look at the Vehicle Speed Sensor. HTH. Check everything that comes from the tranny, cables, make sure all wires are plugged in, etc.

It is against the law to change an odometer meter please

A speedometer tells you how fast you are travelling but an odometer tells you how far you have travelled.

your vss controler is bad i just replaced 1 on my wifes accord green s was flashing some times check engine and my speedo or milagge didnt work but after replacing vss control it all works right

the magic eye sensor on the fly wheel needs replacing i had the same problem with mine :)

buy one off eBay or from a junk yard with the miles you want.

the odometer is driven by a tiny electric motor now what fails on this is tha rubber worm gear now the only way to fix this problem is by buying a whole new spedometer cluster which runs about $300 from ford

There is no odometer cable. The odometer is controlled electronically via the vehicle speed sensor reading. The PCM converts this into an electrical signal and sends the signal to a drive motor located right behind your cluster face.
