Ford Focus 03 Dashboard Problem

[jimbo14]

i have a ford focus 1.6 03 year. i had a problem with the full gauge not working so got hold of a second hand dash board for the focus and put it in. the dials all work again but the milage is showing 100,ooo miles which the car the dash come out of must of done but my old milage was only 77,000 miles is there any way of putting the milage back to 77,000 miles with this second hand dashboard.

Hi Jimbo, unfortunately this is a dealer job, they need to basically copy the current data from your original dashboard memory chips and move them to the new one, there is no way that you can do this without them (to my knowledge)

cant be done on 1999-2005 model focus, only the new shape. dealers have no software for these
