Good information, I also have a 99 CC Sport,5.2L, auto, BUT my odometer
"switch" only has one switch not 2. I tried the above procedure and it worked
but got no display about "codes", just the test. I bring this up because we
also have a 1997 Plymouth Voyager that has the 2 switches that this procedure
does work, during the "test" it displays "CODE", while on my DAK it does not.
Any thoughts??
