How to disable odometer from reading mileage.

[bigmacd]

I have recently purchased a 2005 Liberty and was wondering how one goes about disabling the odometer. Is it a body control replacement, an instrument cluster replacement, or is it a matter of disconnecting the speed sensor at the rear differential? Any insight would be great.

Thanks.

you're kidding,right? You might want to check and see if that is actualy legal where you are because I am pretty sure it is not

That's a pretty crazy idea. Its ilegal just about every where, it will kill your waranty, and seems pretty shady. If I am not mistaken, it's not only a matter of street legal, but all around ilegal.

You can disconnect it, but it will disable the speedometer and cluster. So just install an aftermarket speedo, or use a GPS unit. When I was exporting trucks to the USA from Canada before the car companies caught on, we swapped out the km/h guages to miles. It was easy enough to do. For the liberty I would get a manual, just disconnect the whole dash, it has wires going to it with a connector.

Sometimes, you can just pull a fuse. My '99 Voyager minivan (leased) had the odometer and cruise control on one fuse.
I just pulled that fuse and away I went. Everything else worked fine, as far as I knew.
