There have been a few posts about fuel gauge inaccuracies or failures. Often the advice is "use the trip meter". Well, my fuel gauge is ok (so far) but lately sometimes my trip meter button has no effect when pressed. Won't change from displaying total mileage (odometer) to trip 1 & trip 2, so sometimes I can't reset the trip.
It's only sometimes, isn't cured by switching the ignition off and back on again, cures itself after a while, doesn't seem to happen with any predictability (sometimes in wet weather, sometimes not, etc). No amount of pressing, trying to press different ways, etc, makes any difference. It either works dead easily as normal or it doesn't. You just have to leave it and then try again later until it decides to co-operate.
Any ideas?
