Can the odometer in a car be adjusted? The method to adjust the odometer is: 1. Unplug the odometer sensor connector under the car's engine hood; 2. Insert the output plug of the mileage adjuster into the signal socket of the sensor; 3. Plug the mileage adjuster into the cigarette lighter; 4. Turn the car key to start the dashboard and adjust the adjustment button on the mileage adjuster; 5. Adjust the vehicle speed. The function of the odometer is to record the total kilometers traveled since the car left the factory. Its working principle is based on knowing the diameter of the car's wheels. By calculating the circumference of the wheel, the number of rotations needed for one mile can be determined. The odometer automatically records the number of wheel rotations, and dividing by the number of rotations corresponding to one mile gives the distance traveled.
