Default Not Dodge related but does anyone know how to change the odometer from kilometers to

So I've got some friends that rented a 2009 Ford E-350 van for a trip. On the trip the oil change light on. The company they rented it from told them to get it changed and they would repay them for what it cost if they kept the receipt. Well, they took it to get it changed and somehow the people changing it got the odometer changed over to kilometers. They couldn't figure out how to get it back to miles so called the Ford dealership and they were unable to tell them either.

So now I had my friends ask me and I have no idea so thought I'd try to find out for them. Does anyone on here have any idea on how you can change it back? I've done a search on yahoo and am probably searching for the wrong terms as I'm not finding anything.

If anyone knows how to fix it I'd appreciate it. Thanks.

+1, Tell them to call a Ford dealer, there is most likely a series of things to do with the trip button(s).

On my Mustang the "info", "setup" & "reset" switches on the dash take care of all the adjustments. All you do is cycle through the menu and it will allow you to select whatever you want. I dunno what the setup is like on their trucks.

It is amazing to me how many Mustang owners there are here. I think it's time for a "stang owners members club" here, and since I mentioned it, I'm member #1 ! LOL
