2004 V70 NA - Trip Odometer issue

Post by dejongmc »

Hello,

After each time I fill up my car I reset my trip odometer (T1) to zero, but intermittent the trip odometer will reset itself out of the blue. This happens sometimes when I start the car and I cannot find any relation to something else that is happening that can cause this.

Anybody else had this issue?

I have an xc70 of the same year and that's been happening alot. Really annoying. I have a battery that's on its way out and I think that's it. Hopefully an experienced member chimes in on this.

Happened on my '02 as part of the failure of the DIM. Once it started it took close to 2 years before the DIM failed totally. So be ready.

Good Luck,

Bill

If you search that on this forum you will find a dealer fix via some software fix. I have a 2004 xc70 and same thing. Just didn't want to pay for it yet.
