Haven't seen this as a help guide so thought I'd write one for anyone who is unaware of the
self diagnostic mode available to owner's with a digital odometer. So here it is:-

Details
Self Diagnostic Mode

The Self Diagnostics Mode gives you in-depth information about your
engine and the actual numbers in digital. To use it, follow the steps:


* Insert Key but do not turn it on
* Press and hold the Trip Meter Reset Button
* While holding the reset button, start your car and continue holding the button
* Within 10 seconds, the display should change to "test" in LCD font and the needles will do a full sweeping. Release the Button


Pressing the button will now cycle through some 17 different modes


1. Shows a Gauge Sweep
2. Shows all 8's on the LCD (LCD TEST)
3. Illuminates all the bulbs on the dash
4. Displays hexadecimal value for ROM level
5. Displays the hexadecimal value for EE level
6. Shows DTC (Diagnostic Trouble Code)
7. Digital Speedometer - MPH
8. Digital Speedometer - KPH
9. Digital tachometer - RPM
10. Fuel volume
11. Engine coolant temperature
12. Battery voltage
13. ABS fail
14. Electronic brake distribution (EBD) failure
15. Illumination
16. Crank Sense

(I'm pretty sure there are a few more to this list but can't remember what they were for as the site I used is now closed down)


The following table shows DTC descriptions. As mentioned before, the codes mean very little. Before tests are run, there's lots of steps that need to be taken. If you suspect something is wrong, have your computer scanned with an OBD-II scanner. Many auto parts stores do this for free. Dealers usually charge for this.

More the merrier. Makes it easier to find with a few different thread pointing at it so :thumbs:
 
(You posted again while I was writing this so I'll leave it up to you, but as you say, the more the merrier can't harm...lol)

Orginally typed:-
Actually, just delete it mate. Looks like the other link is more focused towards the Puma and probably a little more accurate.

Except I don't think the fuel indicates mileage left unless it is a very rough estimate as mine full says 235 and empty has never gone below 27 even when dry.
