Title: How To Change Dash Display Question
Post by: Aufgeblassen on July 03, 2023, 06:10:41 PM
I just got a new Like 150i, and I am able to toggle between miles and kilometers on the odometer, but how do I switch to Fahrenheit from Celsius?

Good question. It is not covered in either the owner's manual or the service manual. I just went downstairs and checked mine. It reads in "Fahrenheit" (regardless of if ODO is reading miles or kilometers).

By the way I like the color of you machine and I would love to be able to order that rear rack. What is the year and "Model Number" of you bike? Hint the only place that you will find the model number on the bike (and probably the paper work as well) is on that sticker at the bottom right of you ride. Make a note of it for later reference.

That's weird!  Mine is a '23 Life 150i, and only reads in Celcius!

An easy approximate way to convert Celsius to Fahrenheit: double C and add 25. Example: 30 degrees Celsius X 2= 60, add 25= 85F.

The accurate conversion formula is  9/5 X C+32= F   So: 30 X 9/5=54, plus 32= 86F exactly.

As C climbs higher than 30, or drops below 30, the approximation formula is less accurate but close enough for government work, as they say.

I prefer it display correctly.

I somehow got the temp. display to F when I was trying to reset Trip 1.
