Question Question on the trip odometer . . .

Does it have a maximum number of miles and then resets itself?

Currently only using the "A" trip odometer, to track miles per tankful . .

But I have now noticed twice the the "B" odometer, has reset itself . . .

I only have a mear 2,200 mile on the clock, and thought it was wierd that the "B" trip now says 89 miles, and I have never reset it . . .

It justs rolls over after 1000 miles (three digits 999.9) at least on my '06. Unless you reset it periodically. I use Trip A at gas tank fill-ups and B if I plan a road trip, or just let it roll over.

+1

Had the same thing happen on a road trip, watched it hit 999 and it rolled to 0

Thanks for the info, I figured that was what it does. Just surprized me. On my Silverado, I use the second trip odometer to track annual business trip mileage, which gets up into 10,000+ miles.

Thanks!

I noticed that on my vacation. I was going to track the total mileage driven on B, but it kept reseting and kinda pissed me off.
