trip computer
Moderator: martauto
On my trip computer when you select the consumption to MPG it converts the temp to Deg Farenheit from Deg Celcius, just something thats been niggling me for a while. Does anybody know if you can have it in Deg C and MPG?

yeah that bugs me too.
I just leave it in mpg and convert the deg F to C.
Take F reading ,subtract 30,then half what you've got left gives you deg C.
E.G 60F = 60-30=30
30/2= 15 deg C
Ball ache i know but thats what i do.

I think if you take the comp out of the dash you can change it to deg c, when i took the dash outta mine i noticed there's a knob on the back of the comp i think you can change it by turnin it round a settin or two not completely sure though never thought at the time to see what it done.

think I'll invest in calculator and keep it in the car! just one of those things thats been bugging me recently.
i'll need to investigate the thing on the back, done a quick search on the forum couldnt see any other threads on it.
