Default Mute?! Does it make noise in some models? Yuck...

...the blinking light is bad enough. I've found that I tend to ignore it, or not notice it, and it'll blink away for quite some time.

Agreed. If we can figure out how to disable it, hurray! HPH

Default You can...

It will go off briefly/temporarily if you press the reset button, or either side of the "scroll" switch that changes the display.

The timer will reset to 0:00 if you turn of the ignition for more than 10 minutes. If you stop for less than 10 minutes it will continue to blink/beep every 2 hours.

Default Right -- even just the scroll switch resets it. But...

I'd be happy to disable the &$%# thing altogether.

I feel the same way about the "service reminder" that's linked somehow to the odometer. HPH
