What does the number next to the fuel gauge on the dashboard mean?
1 Answers
The number next to the fuel gauge on the dashboard refers to the trip mileage, which is the distance traveled since the last reset. The owner can manually reset it. Introduction to the odometer: There are two mileage readings on the dashboard. One is the total mileage of the vehicle, which cannot be reset and is displayed prominently on the dashboard. The other is the trip mileage, which can be reset and is displayed in a smaller size on the dashboard. It is used to record the distance traveled by the vehicle over a certain period, such as after maintenance. Resetting the trip mileage makes it easier to know when the next maintenance is due. Principle of the odometer: The vehicle odometer is a digital display instrument panel. It operates based on the meshing of the rotating gear shaft of the electronic counter drum with the worm gear on the speedometer's rotating shaft, causing the electronic counter drum to rotate. Its advantage is that when the upper-level drum completes one full rotation, the lower-level drum rotates 1/10 of a turn.
