Overhead console MPG stuck

I have a 2005 diesel overhead console that shows MPG, DTE, etc. When I fill up I can reset all fields to zero and it will track data and display info. Here lately the MPG always shows 25.2 no matter which field is reset or the sequence. Is there a master reset or a reboot for this thing. Thanks

First off WELCOME to DTR!!

May sound like a stupid question but have you reset the actual MPG reading? Resetting the others has no affect on the MPG setting.

If so you may just try to unhook both batteries for about 30 minutes. These third gens seem to do funny electrical things and unhooking the batteries seems to help many of them.

I will also suggest pulling the battery cables for a bit as a hard reset for the entire system.
