You must have pressed the trip and reset buttons for the odometer while you were cleaning the dash.

Too cool.... not so much the speedometer or tac.... But mileage wise... must be nice to own a mint LS with 0 Miles!

يبغالك برمجة فقط يا سيد.

لو إنك في الرياض أنا أعرف شخص ممكن يساعدك, اسمه بدر المانع.
ارسللي رسالة خاصة لو حاب رقمه.

Sorry guys,
I had to write in Arabic just to give our friend the idea in the quickest way possible.

I just referred him to a person that I know of that can help him. Because basically what happened is, due to some electric shortage, the car lost it's factory programming, and that can be restored by an OBDII connector and some software.

How much water did you use? Maybe you shorted out the electronics in the vehicle somewhere.
The odometer should never reset to zero.

Hey I just found this discussion and realized we have the same issue. My gauge cluster constantly switches between english and Japanese, and the speedometer and tacometer cons instantly stop displaying rpm and speed. Just the other day, my odometer seemed to have added an extra 10k miles making it go from 247k to 257k overnight. Did you happen to find a fix for this?

Same issue here, temp and gas work, tach and speed do not.

Mileage is 0 and letters on Japanese.

What's the fix here?

This somehow reminds me of a joke that says if you wash your computer in your dish washer, use the upper rack😜. How much water did you use? Do not use pressure washer, use garden hose💧
