If you wish to change the analog speedometer then you would have to buy new gauge faces.

Unfortunately, I believe you need a new A/C control unit to replace your current one -- there is no easy way to convert the display from one to the other.

These are separate views of the same evidence. Frequency alone does not establish a fix, and these counts must not be added together.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

11 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Hi Guys, I have been contempating importing a U.S. car into Canada. Is there a way to make the speedometer and odometer on a U.S. model read in kilometers? Thanks

POST 2Original post

You can switch the digital speedometer and odometer from miles to kilometers and vice-versa. Read your owner's manual on how to do it. HINT: It involves turning one of the ***** and holding it for 3 seconds. If you wish to change the analog speedometer then you would have to buy new gauge faces.

POST 3Original post

What about changing the A/C temp from Centigrade to Celsius..??

POST 5Original post

Sorry, that was unintentional, I meant degrees....

POST 6Original post

I guess you meant from Fahrenheit to Celsius...

POST 7Original post

If you meant to convert from Fahrenheit to Celsius then you need a calculator and the following formula: C = (F - 32) / 1.8 Unfortunately, I believe you need a new A/C control unit to replace your current one -- there is no easy way to convert the display from one to the other.

POST 8Original post

I'll get it right eventually.......... Actually, I want to change it from Celsius to Fahrenheit. Why would my car be displaying the temp in Celsuis???

POST 9Original post

To change the AC reading from C to F or otherwise, go to the dealer. They have to do it by hooking it up to their computer. It costs $40 and takes two minutes. They can change other stuff too.....

POST 11Original post

You do NOT need to go to the dealer. On my '99, it was as simple as holding down I believe the recirculate button and then hitting the button for lowering the temperature IIRC. It has been a long time and this may not be the exact procedure, but I found it searching online when I first bought the car. I know the car did not need to go to the dealer for this.

This is a source reference. Confirm exact model applicability in the original material.
