How to Adjust the Digital Speed Display on Volkswagen Tiguan's Instrument Panel?
2 Answers
Adjust the return button on the multifunction steering wheel or the buttons on the right combination switch. Below is relevant information about the instrument panel: 1. Function: The car's instrument panel reflects the working conditions of various systems in the vehicle, typically including indicators such as the fuel light, door light, front and rear fog light indicators, etc. Cars are equipped with a speedometer, tachometer, oil pressure gauge, fuel gauge, etc. The speedometer consists of a speed meter and an odometer. Traditional speedometers are mechanical and widely used in various vehicle models. 2. Reasons for Speed Display Failure: The vehicle's speed sensor may malfunction, or there could be short circuits or damage in the wiring; the instrument panel may display abnormally due to damaged wiring or loose connectors. If the speed is not displayed on the instrument panel, it should be repaired promptly to avoid speeding issues.
I've been driving my Volkswagen Tiguan for a long time and when the dashboard doesn't display the digital speed, I usually fix it myself. Typically, I go into the system settings menu to check, press the return icon in the bottom right corner with the left steering wheel button, select the display options, and there's a speed display switch—try turning it on. If that doesn't work, turn off and restart the vehicle or connect an OBD upgrade software. This might be a settings error or a minor software bug, which doesn't affect driving but is quite annoying. For safety, not having speed display on highways can lead to speeding, so it's better to pull over and try again. Having a technician check the dashboard settings during regular maintenance can prevent this. I've adjusted it several times myself, and checking the manual or online forum tutorials is quite convenient—don't rush, take your time.
