Post Dash display center help!

I was playing with the test feature, where you hold in the black trip reset button the dash and then put the key in and turn forward and TEST apperars and then yo ucan toggle through man features. However, my mileage and outside temperture changed to read "CAL" and then my mileage, dissapearing my outside temp. Does anyone know how to change that back? it has something to do with the key in the ignition and the trip button I think. Thanks!

I would but the thing is I somehow changed it when I was trying to get to the TEST display. I just don't know how I did it.

Have you tried going through the test procedure again (going all the way through it) and then turning the truck off?

No, there are about 40 toggle options on there so it takes a long time to get through them all but I never tried that. I will try that tomorrow and see what happens.

I tried that this morning, didn't work. After being frustrated I just started driving and after 10 miles I looked down and it was gone... the Compass, outside Temp and mileage all appeared! Thanks anyway!

Good, I kind of figured it was just recalibrating.
