Mileage Correction, Adjustment and Calibration - FAQs
What is Mileage Correction,
Adjustment, Reset or Calibration?
- Mileage correction becomes
necessary when the digital speedometer mileage display shows a
reading which you know to be incorrect. PMC can help by
electronically adjusting and reset the instrument cluster to show
the true, correct value.
Why Would I
Require a Digital Mileage Adjustment Service?
There are many
reasons why you might require your mileage adjusted, for example,
if:
• the battery was discharged and the vehicle
required jump-starting
• the dashboard may have been damaged in an accident/collision or
through vandalism
• the dashboard may have developed an electrical fault
• new engine has been fitted to the vehicle
In these examples,
the corruption/loss of the information held in the EEPROM may mean
that the mileage displayed on the digital odometer is now
incorrect.
You might therefore purchase
either a new or second hand instrument cluster. What happens? If
it's a new one it will have 0 miles on it. If it's a second hand one
it could have 90,000 miles on it. Since it is practically impossible
to find one with your exact mileage, you will most likely need to
have it calibrated and adjusted to your original mileage reading.
Can PMC copy the mileage out
of a non-functional or damaged cluster?
In most cases PMC can extract
the mileage information/data from your faulty digital cluster even
if it does not power-up or if the display is non-functional/damaged.
Once the data has been extracted it can be transferred to another
speedometer.
