Hey everybody. Ive got that overhead digital computer thing that tells you the temperature outside and, well...thats all it does. But there is a button on the left side of it that says comp/temp but when i push it, it doesn't do anything. its probably broke or stuck i'm guessing. but i've had the truck for 4 or 5 years now and that button has never worked. is it supposed to do something when pushed? the other button on the right works just fine changing the temp to celcius and back but i'm curious if the other is supposed to tell me things to. its in a 1995 model if that helps. thanks in advance.

 

Hey Chromed95

I also am experiencing the exact same problem as you. Just curious if you ever found out what was up with your overhead computer.

I am wondering if all we have is a "outside temp option"

TIA!

 

it just tells temp and direction thats it

 

Some models tell you what MPG you're getting, your distance untill you run outta gas and how much gas you have in the tank. My durango has the s one that tells you all that and my 1994 dodge ram does have the temp/direction but the ram doesnt have it built into the computer to process the information as far as MPG etc etc.

 

Only 1999-2001 trucks have the overhead console that tells you the MPG. This style cannot be converted to be used on a 1994-1998 truck.

 

I didnt say it could be, i was telling him what they do and why his cant do MPG ?

 

He never said it could. Please, stop the nitpicking, Nate. You're starting to sound like Viper37/011500Ram.

haha viper made me laugh

 

For the earlier 2nd gens(94-98?), all that left button does is turn it on and off. Kind of a worthess button if you ask me.
