Odometer: Description and Operation



ODOMETER

The instrument panel cluster (IPC) contains a season odometer and a trip odometer. Momentarily press the trip/reset switch in order to toggle between the season odometer and the trip odometer. Press the trip/reset switch for greater than 2 seconds, while the trip odometer is displayed, in order to reset the trip odometer. The IPC displays the vehicle mileage and trip mileage as determined by the IPC. The IPC calculates the mileage based on the vehicle speed from the powertrain control module (PCM)/engine control module (ECM). The odometer will display 'error' if an internal IPC memory failure is detected.
