Default khm to mph

For some unknown reason (at least to me) my 98 vette speedometer is now reading in khm. I checked the owners manual and am unable to locate what to do to change it back to mph. I have not done any work to any part of the car lately. Any suggestions? Tks

Push the ENGLISH to METRIC button on your pod. You may have pushed it by accident pulling up an option, or gauges, or fuel on your DIC.

Default English

Thanks - I did not think that that would change the speedo, according to the owners manual that will change the "language which the DIC will display - French, English, etc.". But I will give it a try.

Yep, hit the button and it will change.

The day after I bought my car I was riding to work at about 5:00 AM (read it's dark) and was pushing buttons and hit the mph/kph button without knowing it. I had no idea how to fix it, or how fast I was really going and was pacing a police car for part of the trip!

To change the language, you have to go to, and change, the OPTIONS in your DIC menu. To change the KPH/MPH, all you do is tap button number 5,E/M. It's between the OPTIONS, and the RESET buttons.
