Honda Odyssey Service Manual: Rewriting the ODO Data on a New Gauge Control Module

NOTE:

• Obtain a new gauge control module before starting the rewriting process. Only new gauges can be rewritten.

• Rewriting is not possible on a gauge control module that will not communicate with the HDS.

• Make sure that the HDS shows the correct VIN for the vehicle you are working on.

• Once you have started this procedure, you must complete it before removing the HDS from the Data Link Connector (DLC).

• Connect a jumper battery (do not connect a battery charger) to insure that correct battery voltage is maintained.

• Check any official Honda service website for more service information about the odometer.
