Odometer currently not working. Probably one of the two gears in the unit lost a tooth. Still looking for new gear. Found some advertised for $25 each. Would hope to find some for less. I believe you can read actual mileage using mode 5 in the diagnostics units. Is that correct and what is the procedure for entering mode 5 and the procedure to read out the mileage.
Thanks.

    I did a search for odo gears last year and found a small gear for $10, somewhere on Google. The small gear is the best bet for failure. I also bought a small torx set to do the T8 and T5 screws.

    Do a search for odometer on this site and get the 5-5-5 reading for the miles. I believe 1-1-1 blinks the right 3 digits and 1-1-2 does the left 3 digits. 10 blinks = zero.

    BTW, I wrapped the end of a pencil with masking tape, put the pencil in a drill, and ran the mileage forward to match the actual miles.
