Trip Computer

Fig 1: Identifying Trip Computer Switch
G03176655

Pressing the trip switch on the left stalk of the steering column switch assembly activates the trip computer which displays trip data on the message center. Warning and Information messages have priority over trip data; if a driver information message is displayed prior to activation of the trip computer, the trip data will appear for 10 seconds only, before being replaced by the original message.

Each successive press of the trip switch causes the computer to continually cycle through the stored data which is then displayed on the message center.

The trip computer switch pack, mounted on the fascia is only enabled while the trip computer output is displayed. Refer to the Drivers Handbook for full operating instructions.
