so i just got my jeep back from the shop it had the rear main seal and oild gasket replaced on so needless to say it got an oil change.....i would like to keep better track of my time frame between oil changes and the VIC says that me next mileage to service is 7500 miles how do i get it to say 3000 my last jeep did why doesnt this one?

 

On my '01 GC, the mileage is adjustable at VIC. Do you know how to reset it?

 

reset your overhead console or the trip meter on the cluster. I usually use the trip meter on the cluster for MPG calculations, and the overhead console to keep track of oil change intervals

 

no not on the over head read out im talking about the center stack V.I.C. read out if you hit the select button on the center stack read out it will tell you the miles tell next service/tell your next oil change for some reason when i got my jeep it was set at 7500 miles tell service i want to set it at 3000 miles for a service......i had a 93 grand wagoneer (samething as a GC) and it was set at 3000 miles for the service reminder im asking how do i set it back to 3000 miles from 7500 miles (on the center stack NOT the over head read out)

 

You gotta work with us a little here, what are you driving?

 

oh Im sorry I tried to update that on my proflie thing I guess it didnt work I drive a 94 GC V8 (she only has 155000 on the clock so I would like to save it if I can I read on here that the 5.2 will run FOREVER if you take care of them)

 

I googled this.


To reset the service indicator on a 94 Grand Cherokee, turn the key on, press the "Select" button once, then press & hold the "Set" button for 2 seconds, when the display changes from 0 miles to serivice to 7500 miles to service you are done. Turn the key off to save the changes.

 

There is a service indicator on a 94 GC???? I will have to check that out..

Andy I see you've been overseas glad to see you got back OK.. I was in VN in 68 and 69.

 

Thnaks andy i got my service reminder rest now this will help out a lot in trying to save and milk every mile out of that big 5.2 V8

and andy were did you go go overseas to OIF or OEF i have not gone yet but im in the guards.....i have 4 years in so far lol

 

Umm yeah what they said hold the set button down for a few seconds

 

Wayfast, thank you for your service. My father inlaw was in Da-Nang from 67-68. He told me that 68 was possibly the worst year for Americans there. The ***** was really heavy at that time.

Fortunately or Unfortunately, depending on how you look at it, I have not been into Iraq or Afghanistan. I have been to Kuwait and Kyrgystan, 3 times each. I am a Traffic Management Coordinator. I am a Fed-Ex dude in a uniform. Instead of shipping boxes here or there, my job is to project and ship US combat power to anywhere in the world. That includes Armor, Ammo, Support Equipment and Personnel. I have to coordinate all customs clearances for every country our gear transits. So Technically, my job is not to be where the fight is, my job is get the warfighter what he needs before he needs it and by whatever means is available.

 

oh i see that sounds like a GREAT job.....you to travel alot and see the world and i would say that the fact you havent been to the "big war" is a good thing. i have heard stories from buddies in other units and no one should be forced to go over just my two cents but we do have the worlds best ALL volunteer army (or any other branch)
