Really??? You pushed the OBC button to get to the setting for how many more miles you can go with the gas that is in the tank. Read the owners manual….

"Range xxx Miles left per tank"

Cycle the OBD back to nothing.

Do yourself a better favor. Send the cluster off to one of the many repair vendors to fix that screen for you. You will not want to decipher a message that you cannot read especially when its a critical one.

There are few threads on getting the pixels fixed in your gauges.

^^ $100 bucks well spent, mine was fixed a few years back - too delicate of a job for my hands

Hopefully you've gotten the owners manual out and read it by now.

There are times you DO need to pay attention to the 20 digit alpha/numeric display...and that is when you get a message from the check control system (accompanied with a gong/chime sound).

The display in the cluster has first priority to the Check Control System...that system will remove ANY other info that shows up or is programmed to appear there...and again, it will be accompanied by a warning gong.

The check control system has TWO types of warnings...priority 1 and priority 2. As stated in your owners manual...the PRIORITY 1 warnings are serious and you need to check them immediately when they appear in the display. The PRIORITY 2 warning come up when you turn the ignition off and can be taken care of less immediately (again, this is explained in the owners manual under Check Control).
