i have taken everything off my civic ready to scrap it and put loads on ebay
i have the clocks and there on there i was wondering if there a way of reseting the mileage on the clocks as its pretty high
any help would be great
are they mechanical?
i just took the escort ones to bits & pushed them round. lol.
the dude was well happy that wanted them.
i think they should be mechanical so should be dead easy to do.

When I had my old Sierra, the ratchet type mechanism for the mileage display wasn't working so the mileage would drop in reverse...........before I sold it I stuck a drill on the speedo cable and span it back about 30,000
Good ol' Ford!

I thought that this method was am myth!!
Awesome!!!
It's supposed to be impossible due to the setup in the cluster, but if it fails then the speedo cable direction goes "direct drive" to the display.
Same thing happened to my mates AX GT years ago; when he reversed the speedo tried moving backwards and the mileage went back a bit
Hahha mega
all done reset to 000000
Isn't that a bit obvious though? Does that not mean it looks like it hasn't done any miles at all?

errr....yes 
okay okay no need to take the mic I just thought it might be a bit obvious that's it's been reset that's all.
i believe it's illigel to misrepresent mileage on a car. not to reset the clocks.
i'm on about my 5th set of clocks in the escort!
and not going in my car so nothing to do with me in about 2 days when they gone so i dont care
