not really sure what you are referring to here, however if you press the 'trip' button on the ICC you will find this will scroll through the various trip details - Instant fuel, average fuel, average speed, total time, and distance to 0 fuel...

you can reset each by bringing up the function u want and pressing reset for half a second... if you want to reset all then hold the reset button down for 3 seconds...

Hope this was what you were after...

The BA's don't have the digital speedo unfortunately, Ford only introduced it on the current FG falcon.

As smicky said you still have the other functions, but they are only displayed on the gauge cluster

You can plug in a scan tool and set the car to run in a sort of police mode.

However this will do other things to the car, the interior light won't work, the indicators dont flash when you lock the car, the horn doesnt sound if you lock the car and a door is open, you lose you instant and average fuel economy on your trip computer.

The advantage is you get the digital speedo and some other reading, but I'm unsure of what it is.

I think this is the only way to can get the digital speedo to work.

What the?

Police mode? My car has a flat bed scanner and it transforms into a sort of night club with lights and bouncers that lock you out?

hehehehe

Sorry ill make myself somewhat clearer on my VY Late model camira if you hold down the Mode and set buttons while turning the car on it has a new menu where you can see things like a digital tacho or digital Speedo this will go away once the car is turned off.

With the ICC I dont have the trip button on it is there a way of of getting these details to appear ??

I have the premium ICC with the 6 CD stacker if that helps

Thanks

The trip button should be down the bottom of the ICC Unit along with the traction control button, the interior light button and the door locking button. If you press the TRIP button it will scroll through different readings such as

instant fuel economy

Average Fuel Economy

Trip time

Average Speed

Distance to empty

There is no way to get this digital speedo on the BA/BF's unless you plug in a scan tool and put it into "police mode"

Only with the climate control setup, not with just premium sound.

In answer to your question XR6T_03, no there is nothing there I'm sorry.
