F vc C????

Okay, this is more of a question than an electrical modification... wasn't sure where to post it. i attended the SR drive in Chicago on Sunday Oct 29th and on the way there my thermostat decided it was going to go with the metric system. It's always been Fahrenheit, but at some point on the way to the drive it changed to Celsius. WHAT GIVES?? and how do i change it back? the manual says this has to be set by the dealer, but i'm pretty sure there wasn't anyone under my hood at 85mph at the time of the change. So what happened and what do i do??? 21 - 24 gives me pretty good heat for now, but i'd like to know what temp it is without converstion math.

THANKS

From the illustrious Dave:
You can change it yourself. Just hold down the ON (right side of AUTO) for a few seconds. That will do the change back and forth.

As I recall that's it. If that doesn't work, hold down AUTO for a few seconds.

Dave
That's from an '03, but a later model should be similar.
