Problem with the trip meter reset not working - any ideas?

[Ralph B]

Have a 2014 RT. Runs great, but I just discovered that when I refueled and reset the mileage, nothing worked. Could it be the switch or what? It has worked fine before. Any ideas?

Trip A or Trip B

Which trip meter did you try to reset?

:welcome:
Since you're new in here, and we've all got a lot to learn about each other: could you please tell us the procedure that you used to try and "zero" the trip meter/odometer?

(I'm sorry to ask this: I'm actually hoping that it was a procedural error, since they're the easiest and cheapest to fix! )

also did you hold the button for a few seconds to reset?

Problem with reset

I had this problem this past season, it was operator error, when I reset the mileage I also hit the pause button, took me a while to figure it out. You may have done the same thing.

^^ That's always a good one TCB (& Ralph) & can really cause some concern until you work out what you've done!! Aaargh, nothing's working! What've I broken!! :gaah:




Another one that'll probably catch you out every now & then is when you go to reset Trip A & might even successfully achieve that, but on leaving the screen to go back to the main display you accidentally &/or without noticing switch across to Trip B - the UN-reset one!! :shocked: That'll get you thinking for a while once you discover the still increasing miles despite your 'supposed reset' pps:

What do you mean by "nothing's working"? When you select the Trip A or Trip B page, momentarily press the "V" key. Don't hold it down.

My owners manual (2015 RT Limited) says to press the V key twice to reset the trip meters(s), A and B. but to get to that selection you have to cycle thru the mode (eco) button to get to the odometer Page, and you can only reset the trip meters, not the odometer.

If you are trying to reset the actual odometer (total mileage on the bike), it cannot be done. Only the trip meters.

I have a feeling I know what the OP is asking. I too reset my trip odometer at each fill-up. I think it's a great habit for keeping an eye on the condition of your machine. (Any serious deviation from normal mileage and something's wrong). Sometimes the reset just does not want to play nice. Other times it resets on the first push of the button. I have a 15 RTL. I have not been able to isolate a problem yet.
