Preee Posted January 25, 2013 Share Posted January 25, 2013 goto the trip reset , press and hold as if to reset keep holding , press the start button but do not put your foot on the clutch , keep holding until gauge test comes up , then you can scroll through :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jeebowhite Posted January 26, 2013 Share Posted January 26, 2013 Im glad that they kept this one feature through the range to be honest, its a fantastic function! I think Ford did it to make the owners worry when they get a DTC, so that they rush the car to the dealers :P but they probably didnt think about us lot on this forum abusing it and sharing the answers and eating their commission :P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Preee Posted January 26, 2013 Share Posted January 26, 2013 I like the fact i can put the display to read out Digital Speed and drive the car with it reading out lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
k13r4n Posted January 26, 2013 Author Share Posted January 26, 2013 Is there a way to do the gauge sweep on start up or is that verging into elm config Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Preee Posted January 26, 2013 Share Posted January 26, 2013 Don't think there is , only via the actual test mode , ELMConfig does not do this either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
artscot79 Posted January 26, 2013 Share Posted January 26, 2013 the only time the gauge sweeps on start up is if the battery is low Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
