Default How to display the Odometer ?

Hi,

I recently bought a "New" Z06 Canadian Cluster with 0 mile on it (what seller said).
Before to swap these clusters I want to be sure that the mileage is at 0.
May I do that on my workbench or is it only possible once connected in the car ?
Thanks for your help

Unless you have the specific equipment(or know a shop) that can interface with the IPC, you'll have to plug it into the car.

Hi Lucky,

Ah and it will display the cluster's odometer not the car one ?
There is no possibilities to power directly the pins on the back ?
Thanks

The car odometer is recorded on the IPC. So if you want your cars mileage to match, you have to swap that board from your old IPC. There is a thread that describes this if you search. Power up the IPC? Is it possible, yes, have I done it.....no. The last thing you want to do, is hook up something wrong, and damage the new cluster you have.

Hey share that powering up the IPC info... All I've ever managed to do was get a needle sweep!
