Car Forum / Ford / Ford Focus / September 2005Code to unlock odometer
Ive heard that there is a code to unlock your odometer on the focus so that you can get an mph read out, miles of petrol left and other info. If anyone has this i would be greatful if you could share it with me!! I look forward to hearing from you >Ive heard that there is a code to unlock your odometer on the focus so >that you can get an mph read out, miles of petrol left and other info. > >If anyone has this i would be greatful if you could share it with me!! > >I look forward to hearing from you The odometer sequence is explained at <http://www.mustangworld.com/ourpics/fcar/dtcodes.htm>  SignatureAlan mailto:news2me_a_2003@amacleod.clara.co.uk > The odometer sequence is explained at That's actually a great fun feature. I have used it to see, for example, how fast the engine warms up on a winter morning. It's quite amazing how fast this happens. The coolant temp can go from -30 C to the freezing point before I get to the first stop sign a block away.

Thermal coefficient of a petrol car engine is about 22-30% in real live. The remaining say 70-78% energy are exhaust + coolant + radiation. A 2l wouldn't need >100kw possible heat through coolant just to heat up the interior. 1/10-1/20 would be pretty fine to keep it comfortable even in Siberia.

Can I assume that you are using a web-based forum? If so, it might be better to access through Usenet. The link you need appears, and works for me. > So that is why i asked where it could be found!! If you cannot get access through a proper news server, try Google groups archive for the information you need. HTH Chris SignatureRemove prejudice to reply >All it says is that > The odometer sequence is explained at >..and then fails to deliver the place that you can find it!! > >So that is why i asked where it could be found!! I posted a web site address in that Usenet (newsgroup) posting. I repeat the links in 3 different forms below <http://www.mustangworld.com/ourpics/fcar/dtcodes.htm> http://www.mustangworld.com/ourpics/fcar/dtcodes.htm www.mustangworld.com/ourpics/fcar/dtcodes.htm I checked that the link was still working 10 seconds before I made that posting. I have checked the link in the original posting after it has been trough my ISPs news server and it also works without problems. If you cannot see the link addresses then I can only suggest that there is something wrong with your Usenet feed from NTL or you have set some filters in your own software that is blocking URLs. Assuming that your software can see the URL below, does the archived article on Google groups look different to what you originally read. <http://groups.google.com/group/alt.autos.ford.focus/browse_thread/thread /8b759d790204812a/64ea58ec0b4ca2a0?lnk=st&q=Code+to+unlock+odometer&rnum= 1#64ea58ec0b4ca2a0> If your software cannot read or display links go to www dot groups dot google dot com (replace dot with . and remove spaces) and type Code to unlock odometer into the search box.

With some small differences, it appears to work on all modern Ford cars. It works on the LCD odometer on my 2001 UK Focus. SignatureAlan mailto:news2me_a_2003@amacleod.clara.co.uk |
