Odometer & Trip Meter

1994 Saab 900 Base, AutomaticSECTION Odometer & Trip Meter
NOTE: All 6 or 4 digits must be entered.

The odometer display constitutes a replaceable unit. Information about the mileage is stored in the instrument unit. When a new display unit is fitted, no setting has to be done - the current mileage will be shown automatically. If the lighting on one half of the odometer display is weaker than on the other, it might be because one of the 2 lamps at the back of the display is broken.

  1. Connect ISAT to diagnostic connector. Select "TEST FUNCTIONS" followed by "MILLIMETER TEST" or "TRIP METER TEST", which switches on all segments in each meter (shows 8's). If a segment in one of the 8's is missing, the display unit is faulty.
  2. Using ISAT function "ACTIVATE" followed by "MILLIMETER" or "TRIP METER" any desired number can be selected (000000 - 999999 or 000.0 - 999.9) and shown on the display.
