Trip Odometer

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2003 Pontiac Montana, 2003 Oldsmobile Silhouette, and 2003 Chevrolet Venture. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

The trip odometer displays the accumulated miles or kilometers to the tenths of a mile or kilometer since the last reset. This value is stored in the IPC. The IPC has 2 trip odometers which can be selected by pressing the trip reset button. Pressing this button puts you in the trip mode A. Pressing this button again will put you in trip mode B. Pressing this button again will put you in Oil Life Left Index. Pressing this button again will put you in the season (total miles) mode assuming you started from the season mode. The displayed trip odometer is reset on the IPC by pressing and holding the trip reset button for 1.5 seconds. You have to be in the specific trip mode (A or B) in order to reset that specific trip odometer. Both trip odometers accumulate miles or kilometers even when they are not displayed. If the trip reset button is pressed and held for 3 seconds while in a trip mode (A or B), the display will reset to the number of miles (km) travelled since the start of the current ignition cycle.
