One thing about the OBC is a little known trick. To toggle thru the functions on the OBC you can push the end of the turn signal stalk to toggle thru the functions. You can't pick which one to do but it starts at where ever you are on the OBC like if the display shows time, one push on the end of the turn stalk shows date, then miles per gallon then so and so!

The" How to reprogram your obc" has vanished along with geocities?
Can it still be found elsewhere?
