Apparently I have gone 68165 miles on my car, according to the B trip meter. I last reset it on my way home from New Mexico so IAm confused.. somewhere the car got confused too but i thought you may want to see it for yourself lol sorry for it being blurry my phone is not as great as id like

 

and LQQK, you still have 3/4 of a TANK OF GAS!!!!! EXCELLENT!! lol

 

You went 10,589 mi. Your trip has a tenth 0.5 in it so, that's 6,818.5 mi

GOt it!?

 

Um, I see 6818.5 miles for trip B, even in that photo.

 

yeah its a lot of freakin miles on a 10k mile car.. lol

 

Silverworm, how many total miles did you have on your Fit when you last set the B trip meter (returning from NM)? If you had 3773 miles on it when you last hit the B trip meter then everything is on track. [6816 + 3773 = 10589]

I have never used the B trip meter and it reads the same number of miles as the total. Setting the trip meter just zeros out the number. The meter runs all the time, so until you zero it out, it accumulates mileage just like the odometer.

 

first off.. its sLiverworm when i last set the trip B I have no idea how many miles maybe like 800 miles, yes I have about 10.5k miles on her.. so i dunno whats going on maybe ill go mess with the ppl at the dealership and see what they wanna say lol i dont have a problem with it, just kinda funny

 

x2

You're not foolin anyone!

 

its obviouse hes not a math major.. duh.
i hate math too though

 

sorry about that sLiverworm. i've been reading your handle wrong for months!

but then, my eyes are 50 yrs old so I have an excuse . . .

i guess we're even cuz you missed that decimal point?

OK OK EDIT HERE. not a math error. a typing error which I fixed. I will point out that the numbers in your PHOTO are not really legible (not on my monitor anyway) and I was going on the numbers you gave in your post, which I then mistyped. MEA CULPA!!

but let's not snipe at each other's little mistakes, it's all about keeping communication channels open, right?

and please don't get me started or I will begin correcting your spelling, grammar and punctuation.

but really, is there any chance you accidentally tripped the B meter more recently, like when you had 3773 mi on the car? it is easy to do accidentally, when checking maintenance minder.

I suspect it is not a serious problem, just something you don't realize you touched. Hope so anyway. It sounds like less of a problem than my passenger airbag which does not want to function no matter who is sitting in that seat, according to the "not on" light. that'll be my Q to the dealer when I let them do the first oil change. (just the first one, i usually change my own.)

good luck w/it

 

nice man............

 

I have not reset the trip since i got back from NM or whenever I posted first.. so i have no idea what happend.

 

I have 13,000 miles...or 130,000...

 

i am pushing a little over 7500 miles

 

It reads 6818.5 ; The trip meters have decimal values.

are you sure you reset it? To reset, you have to choose "B" then hold the button. If you reset when on "A", " B" is unchanged.

 

lol
i know how to reset a trip meter dude.. iam sure i reset it.

even if i never reset it it would still be off

 

why would u think that? any value less than your total is realistic. My car has gone maybe 8000. My B trip meter reads 7000, b/c I only reset it once, and it was early when I first got it.

 

Holy crap that's a lot of miles covered considering the length of time you had that car!

I got my Jazz 1.2 a year and a half ago and it's bordering 23k at the moment.

 

I think your decimal place indicator must be out for your trip meter. I looked at my odometer last night, and indeed the last digit of the trip meter is the 1/10 of a mile. If you drive and watch your trip meter, you will see that the numbers increment every 10th of a mile. The trip meter is two decimal places to the left of the odometer. So your trip meter should really read 6816.5 miles.

 

I dont understand this thread?

Does your cluster have the decimal in it like shown in this photo?


If it does, then everything is fine. If not, you have a problem with your gauge cluster and should take it to the dealer.
