Info Centre - Imperial or Metric?

[klewer]

Hi all, <br><br>Just picked up a 480, for the amazing sum of £150! All seems to be in order (apart from the Back arches - but that's on the list) Apart from something which is bugging me..<br><br>On the Info Centre, I can easily change the mode from Imperial to Metric, but is there any way of getting the Temperature to read in Celsius when in Imperial mode? <br><br>Not really a Farenheit person me, but I dont want to see the Fuel Cons. in L/100Km either!<br><br>Thanks!<br><br>Kieran <p></p><i></i>

My '89 ES was like that! Can't change it, I'm afraid! I had it in MPG and learnt to cope with farenheit! Luckilly, by the time my '95 Turbo rolled off the production line, they'd managed to change the readout so the temp is in Celcius as well as fuel in MPG <!--EZCODE EMOTICON START :D --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/intl/aenglish/im ... /happy.gif ALT=":D"><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END--> <p><!--EZCODE BR START--><br /><!--EZCODE BR END--><!--EZCODE BR START--><br /><!--EZCODE BR END--><!--EZCODE ITALIC START--><em>1995 480 Turbo, Flame Red Metallic, Jacquard/Leather</em><!--EZCODE ITALIC END--></p><i></i>

Is it so hard to press the button if you want to se the Celsius? <p><!--EZCODE ITALIC START--><em>Real power and Turbo-shit</em><!--EZCODE ITALIC END--><br><!--EZCODE BR START--><br /><!--EZCODE BR END--><br><br><br></p><i></i>

Well I don't know about your setup, but in my '89 ES, to change the <br>measurements, you needed to push a pin into a tiny hole button, so <br>in this case, especially when driving, yes, it would be... <!--EZCODE EMOTICON START ;) --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/intl/aenglish/im ... s/wink.gif ALT=";)"><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END--> <!--EZCODE EMOTICON START :lol --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/intl/aenglish/im ... /laugh.gif ALT=":lol"><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END--> <p><!--EZCODE BR START--><br /><!--EZCODE BR END--><!--EZCODE BR START--><br /><!--EZCODE BR END--><!--EZCODE ITALIC START--><em>1995 480 Turbo, Flame Red Metallic, Jacquard/Leather</em><!--EZCODE ITALIC END--></p><i>Edited by: <A HREF=http://pub32.ezboard.com/bvolvo480.show ... gonlord</A>  <IMG SRC="http://www.dragons.org.uk/images/my480small.jpg" BORDER=0> at: 1/18/03 12:32:09 am<br></i>

That explains it then, because I don't have to press any pins in any hole on my unit<!--EZCODE EMOTICON START :smokin --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/intl/aenglish/im ... smokin.gif ALT=":smokin"><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END--> I just press the button and in half a second the change is made <!--EZCODE EMOTICON START :p --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/intl/aenglish/im ... tongue.gif ALT=":p"><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END--> <!--EZCODE EMOTICON START :D --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/intl/aenglish/im ... /happy.gif ALT=":D"><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END--> <p><!--EZCODE ITALIC START--><em>Real power and Turbo-shit</em><!--EZCODE ITALIC END--><br><!--EZCODE BR START--><br /><!--EZCODE BR END--><br><br><br></p><i></i>
