Default mileage reading from obd1

So I followed the video and got 194526 which seems about right... the odo is stuck on 125433. Unfortunately I don't have any service records to know for sure but its seems about right, given the history I know about it.

Wow! I'm surprised nobody has cared to replace the odometer gear.

What's your question?

Nice, so, if you reset the SERVICE LIGHT you will know when to change oil and count till your next timing belt change. If you have a NA you can change the belt every 7 resets.

I've considered fixing the odo gear but kinda feel its moot at this point the title is odo des and not thrilled about taking apart the dash, no question at the moment just wanted to share as I said I would (in a reply to another thread) I had reset the service light a bit ago and so far so good. Its funny my friend that used to own the car was amazed at nothing lit up on the dash..she's the type to only fix stuff if it breaks down so i'm glad I have the car(and I think the car is happier too), love it, plan on hanging to it for a good while, now only needs cosmetic stuff and well I still have to fix the driver's side window the motor works but slides off the track and then I can't use the door handle on the inside and takes 2 people to close

I was not aware of the other thread but it now makes sense
