I know before anyone blasts me for trying to be shady, I am not. My 2001 Honda Civic LX Instrument Cluster decided to go insane and work intermittently or not at all. I finally pulled every thing out and discovered that something was shorting on the green connection slot on the board and could not be fixed. So I bought a new/used instrument cluster from a Junkyard and now my Odometer reads 200000 plus miles when my car only has 126000 miles on it. If I need to I will go and get the certificate from the Secretary of State. However, I would prefer to reset if possible to correct mileage.

When I first worked on this, I found there is another problem with these Clusters that causes the Gauges to flutter around. There is a TSB on how to reset the board and clear the computer of the error.
-Question 1 Does this Clear out the Speedometer Mileage and correct it to the Mileage stored on the PCM?

-Question 2 How can it be done? or can I take it to the dealer?


Thx

 

Did you ever get this figured out? If not, you could always scour eBay and recycle yards until you find one that most closely matches your current real mileage.
