TYM574HST now. Previously Kubota M5700, Ford 2000
Is this possible? While I appreciate the logic with Celsius (0-100 is superior IMO), I'm 'Merican and I grew up with fern height and can process it more readily.
Is there a way to change the cluster read out to Fahrenheit? And no I'm not German either, just an old Texican, on a new 574.

Change temp from C to F or the opposite.
1-Turn ignition on, wait a few seconds.
2-Depress then release Info button so dash reveals voltage & temperature.
3-Turn headlights on bright.
4-Depress & continue holding Info button approximately 15 seconds or until temp changes from Celius to Farenheit or vice versa.
5-Done.

I left mine on C, I'm a metric kinda guy since I suck at fractions LOL.......besides I went to school using metric.

Metric is better for distance measurement calculations, but Fahrenheit is more precise for temperature. You rarely, if ever, need to do fractions with temps. Maybe if Celsius had temps 0-1000, it would be better.

We will be biased against our mother tongue of measurements, I have to live with two now on a daily basis just like language LOL. But it keeps my brains sharp, so that's that.

Tomorrow I'll try for similar regarding going from km/hr to MPH. Wish me luck!

Sooo, tractorTYMe, do you know the secret handshake to get it to go from km/hr to MPH? Tried variations on the C/F* technique and still stuck on kilometers per hour.:rolleyes:

Unfortunately I don't have a speedo in my T474. So I don't know the secret handshake, one would think if the previous suggestion worked on the temp, it would do the whole dash?
