Entering Engineer Mode on your message display

Did you know...That if you hold the reset button down while turning the key to on that you will enter the engineer mode.

Dianostic display on your message center. Tests all the guages and things. Played with it a little not sure if you really could read any check eng codes or anything but kind of interesting.

Have to play with it somemore and see if it of any real use.

I didn't know that's what it's called. But yes, even my old 2k expedition does this too. My older Dodge Neon did it too. And if there are codes it should display the codes right away.

It will only display instrument panel codes, not engine or trans codes.

I didn't think it would display eng/trans codes, that would be too good to be true.

Thanks, Mark.
