Hello everybody. my Corvette ruined the dash and I managed to buy another used one the problem is that my car has 52k miles and the dash I bought has only 41, does anyone know how I can adjust the mileage to the correct value?

Probably a dealer only fix. Hopefully, you or the dealer can still access the correct mileage on your original DIC, so it can be programmed to the "new" DIC. Reason I say dealer only is there are legal hoops to jump thru, or even more people would have low mile Vette's. Best of luck....

Dealer fix for the most part, and they just pull the actual mileage from the BCM/ECM, call up AC Delco to have them write a VCI mileage firmware file they pull down, to reflash the IPC to the correct mileage.

The glitch is finding a dealer to do the flash, since most only do the flash when they replace the ICP themselves.
If this turns out to be a bust with any local dealer/local Ac Delco speedo shop, then you can pull the actual mileage yourself with a Tech II, make sure not to move the car at that point, then pull the IPC off to send to a third party to flash it to the correct mileage, so the IPC matches the BCM/ECM mileage in the end.
