  • Tripometer problems

    Blown fuse somewhere? Sounds like it's losing power once the ignition is switched off.

        I'll have to look at all my fuses today while I'm at work.

          I came out to the car today and realized that not only was the trip reset but the radio was all cleared out.

          Ok, I just drove the car to work, turned it off, came back out like 10min later and the radio and trip were still at what I left them at.

            Battery leakage? At some point in time, if your battery goes dead, your radio and trip would probably reset. But, I would think that you'd notice the battery being dead when you get to your car and try to start it.

              The constant power circuit has a blown fuse or is shorting out if both the radio and trip are being reset. If it's intermittent then there's a short somewhere.
