Changed Battery

[gibbi]

Hi found out yesterday my battery was on the way out so i changed it but ive found since i have changed it in the trip computer where it tells you the remaining miles i had 500 left and now it seems to be staying on 260 obviously my fuel needle hasn't gone down does anyone know if this correct itself or need resetting?


Thanks Alot

It may sort itself out once you`ve been driving for some time. It should re-calculate it.

reset the trip computer .. go to your miles to empty and mpg and hold in the button under the wiper stalk and it will reset

I've seen this before & usually a few fill ups & emptied usually fixes this, maybe the sender arm has become stuck in a position, could always remove the under rear bench pump & check the arm is moving freely, just be careful remember its flammable lol.
