2005 Workhorse Chassis Computer details

[mjfisher]

I have a 2005 National Dolphin 5342 w/ Workhorse Chassis and I need
instructions for the Computer part. The trip/mode instructions and just
how to select just what I need.

I know this probably is not what you want to hear, but the information is in the chassis owner’s manual. Basicly there are two menus for the instrument cluster, both are accessed by holding the "Mode" button for five seconds and then scrolling up and down with the "Trip" & "Mode" buttons. One word of caution, the highlighted item will take you to a sub menu if it stays highlighted for around 5 seconds. Good luck, there is a lot of information.

ScanGuage II will display information in a more user friendly manner, ScanGaugeII - Trip Computers + Digital Gauges + Scan Tool

I have a copy of the Actia Cluster owner's manual. I'll deliver it as soon as I can upload it. (I'm having a few small technical issues at the moment)

I am pleased to be able to provide you with the 2006 Actia Cluster Service Manual ....

Please note the file is 2.07MB and may require extended time to download via dial-up.

You will need a PDF Reader to open the file.

DriVer, thanks for the updated manual, however like the earlier version it dosen't cover the trip computer. The Actia manual makes a comment to review your manufacturers manual for additional functions, hence the WCC owners manual.

I was just reviewing the 2006 Manual and I have my 2003 manual out in my motorhome. The manual does offer more information however when it comes to someone reading what it does versus taking 3 minutes to show someone how it works makes the biggest difference. Would you not agree?

What I have seen people do more often than not is when they move the highlight bar up or down and they see the function they want, they push the button again. Once they see that you're not supposed to push the button to select the function, all of a sudden it becomes a whole lot easier.

Have a good one!

Ok Here you are:
TRIP: if you have a warning message tap TRIP to clear it
Tap Trip to switch between Millage total, Trip 1 and Trip 2
If displaying Trip 1 or Trip 2. HOLD for like 30 seconds (I do not know the time needed) to reset trip to zero.

MODE:

Tap MODE to put in menu mode.. Tap Mode to move down through the menu,, or Trip to move up.. Pause (do not touch) to select the menu item.. If the menu item is itself a menu, then again Mode moves down, Trip moves up and nothing for so many seconds selects

To reset to instant MPG.. Tap Mode once, and sit back and watch

Does this help?

I am not in the MH now but if you need I can look up the destructions in the manual? (no not a typo)

Mike, you are absolutely correct, this is really a good example of O.J.T. being worth it's weight in Gold!
