Default Rolling forward s2k Odometer reading

Hi guys,

I have a question, If a cluster was swapped and has lower miles than actuality and I wanted to increase the new clusters reading to the previous would the best way be to purchase a yellow box? Or go to a Honda Dealer?

If it's a yellow box how would I get one that rolls forward and is a 30,000 mile discrepancy doable with a yellow box? Where would I get one?


Thank you.

The only thing you could do with a YB is max it out, you will still need to drive many miles.

I'm pretty sure the only thing the dealer can do is "brick" the cluster odometer making it inoperable, I don't think they can change the mileage.

If you're good with electronics and can figure out how the VSS works and pulses, you could probably set up a way to fool the speedo and add a couple of thousand miles on a test bench.

Good luck.

Just document the change and move on IMHO.

Thanks for all the replies guys much appreciated, it sounds like a difficult course of action even with a YB, i'm going to go ahead and call my honda dealer to double check to see what they can do, otherwise i'll document the odometer miss match for future reference.
