Digital vehicle service indicator

摘要

A vehicle service indicator releasable secured within a vehicle. The vehicle service indicator includes a microprocessor able to monitor a distance traveled by the vehicle. A service task indicator is controlled by the microprocessor and includes a display indicating a desired function to be monitored. A step down odometer is connected to the microprocessor. The step down odometer includes a display for displaying a numeric value indicative of a distance to be traveled by the vehicle before the function displayed by the programmed service indicator is to be performed. An indicator is provided for producing an alarm signal. The microprocessor decreases the value displayed by the step down odometer relative to the monitored distance traveled by the vehicle. When the value displayed by the step down odometer reaching a value of "0" the microprocessor activates the indicator to produce an alarm signal alerting a user of the vehicle that the function displayed by the programmed service indicator should be performed. The indicator may include a plurality of programmed service task indicators, a plurality of step down odometers and a plurality of indicators for monitoring a plurality of functions for the vehicle. The vehicle service indicator may be integrally connected or releasably connected within the vehicle. The microprocessor may be programmed by a user to display the desired function to be monitored as well as to count down a desired distance by the odometer.
