Default Rolled over to 300k

I always wanted to roll my LRII to 200k miles, I was so so close.. the other day it read 192k ish.

I was driving to the marina and realized it had turned over to 302,045 miles... huh? Its 16 years old, I am sure the odometer non-volatile memory backup battery has died. (if there is one..)

Oh well.

Can a dealer reset this? I guess I don't really care... but I was so close.

Yep, mine switched to Celcius on the air conditioning a few months ago, and just two weeks ago the odometer decided it would rather display kilometers. No idea why, haven't tried to reverse it yet.

"A trip reset button is provided to zero the trip display, this button also allows the selection of "miles" or "kilometres" for the display. A photocell controls the illumination of the LCD, maintaining contrast of the display during ambient light changes."

from the manual

If you push in an hold the trip display for (3) seconds and move the steering wheel adjustment up and down (3) times, it will change "miles" to "furlong"

If you have your legs crossed and left finger in your right ear, while doing the same procedure...it changes it to leagues...which is a much better setting...for resale.
