    Default Digital Dash Extra Functions

    Hey crew. Long time no see.

    Got a quick question.

    While cruising around the other night I was messing around with the buttons on the dash of my VP Calais and figured out if you hold the reset button in you get some weird things pop up on the digital part of the dash.
    Only one I can remember is FloCal followed by a number. I then noticed if I pushed the + or - keys I could adjust this.
    Am guessing this has something to do with calibrating the gauges to the fuel tank level or Distance Til Empty etc?

    Anyone know what these functions are exactly and what changing them will do?

    Didn't wanna mess around too much in case I stuffed something up. (Reset I am guessing will fix?)

    Um if you look around in the forums theres a list of what you can do, i was hoping this may have been a thread about hooking up the climate control lol, as im bout to do the dash this weekend...if my s/c arrives.

    Having done the conversion and now done a loom swap... Just swap the entire loom. Use a Calais loom out of the same year as your car and then its all just plug and play!

    Hold + and - while starting the car, and you will have a new set of windows. Digi dash on one, Volts on another, and lamp test on the 3rd. Cant remember the specific ones.
