overhead display

Hi, I have a 98 exby eb and my overhead display only shows mpg and compass. I thought outside and inside temp display was a standard item....Is there away to add it on or not.....thanks all.

Doesn't pressing the little button cycle through the different displays (temperature, mpg, etc)?

I thought all the E.B.s were digital, as far as the heater/ac faceplate.

It is only digital if you have automatic climate control.

I hope you didnt take offense as thinking that you dont know what you saw in your own truck, that was not my meaning and if i offended i apologize. I just thought all E.B.s came with the digital faceplate, but apparently i was wrong. I remember a post before saying that it would be more hassle than it was worth to change it over from a manual control to digital.

Could it be that your year didnt have an outside temp. gauge in it. Do you have the owners manual.


Just thoughts. You have peaked my interest now in this. Good luck.

Doogie....no offense taken at all...sorry my response sounded like that. My owners manual states that some models had and some did not. I have the overhead display and I just assumed that temp was included. My heater controls are just the usual *****....thanks all

My 98 EB also has the regular rotary ***** for the climate control, and it does not have a temp display function in the overhead console. As far as I am aware these features were only availible on the 99 and up Expeditions. Although these features were included in some MY98 Navigators. Wierd. Anyways I hope this helped.
