Hi,

My 2011 Yeti developed a fault in the instrument cluster that caused half of the tach backlights to remain off at all times.

Once the service center checked the fault, it was determined that the entire console would need replacement. Fortunately, at 30000 kms, this is covered under warranty.

Problem is, the techs are saying (I'm sitting at the workshop, waiting for the replacement to happen even as I write) that replacing the cluster will reset all odo readings to zero.

That's inconvenient! Isn't there a way the original readings can be restored from memory?

Would really appreciate an insight from more experienced members in this forum.

You can't generally change the odometer reading, however, if you have a brand new cluster, the odometer reading from the old cluster can be entered.

It only works for brand new clusters and you only have one go at it.
