    Hello to all,
    Anyone know a way to fix my odometer so it can read miles again? It stop counting after 299K, about a year ago.
    Thanks
    Ed

    You can swap for the newer cluster, I can't remember the specific year but I believe it is 07-09. Texas Hybrid batteries programmed mine for me with the correct mileage, I did have to disassemble the cluster and swap the right hand section over so the warning lights are correct. Otherwise the wrong lights light up. There is a write up on it that I can't find right now. Maybe someone can chime in with that.

    Peter, Thanks for the reply, it seems like another option then is to visit a junk yard and look for a newer cluster.

    The important thing to note when doing the 07-09 retrofit to an 04-05 is that you need to change both the light cluster and the combination meter. In addition, you need to modify the light cluster to remove the TPMS LED from the 07-09 light cluster as the 04-05 does not have TPMS. If you don't remove it, that LED will always be lit which is apparently very annoying.

    I cannot imagine having to reverse and go backwards to the 05 to and 6. I have one here that works but I can't imagine putting all that into my 09 that does have TPMS I would be going the other way I'll just drive without the display till I round up one or fails permanently
