???? The first thing that happens when the reset button is press is the drive gear is lifted so the tripometer is now "de-clutched". As the button is pressed further, the gears spin back to zero. When the button is released, the last action is to re-engaged the odometer drive to the tripometer. It's like shifting gears than locking the brakes. Sure, it causes wear - but so does pulling out of the driveway. Or sitting in the seat. -- Philip _______________________________________ http://www.okiebenz.com For new parts see official list sponsor: http://www.buymbparts.com/ For used parts email [EMAIL PROTECTED] To Unsubscribe or change delivery options go to: http://okiebenz.com/mailman/listinfo/mercedes_okiebenz.com
