The first thing you notice right away is the LED looking display. This console also has a US/M button. Only OTIS consoles have this button. Also the lettering for the buttons are located RIGHT BELOW the buttons themselves.
Now... the features of the OTIS are as follows....
- Compass
- Temperature
- Trip Mileage (separate from your speedo trip mileage)
- Average Miles To Gallon
- Instant Miles To Gallon
- Distance to Empty
- Time Elapsed
- Homelink
- US & Metric Conversions
The OTIS come from any of the following vehicles:
- Dodge Intrepid (98 to present - SE / ES / RT/ SXT)
- Chrysler 300m (99 to present)
- Chrysler LHS (99 to present)
- Chrysler Concorde (98 to present)
There are some exceptions to this:
If you have a 2001 or higher vehicle and you try to use an OTIS from a 2000 or earlier donor car... the Trip Mileage on the console will not work. This is because the BCMs are incompatible. All the other features will work. If you have a 98, 99 or 2000 model year car, you do not have to worry about this, any OTIS will work for you and you will get the trip mileage.
Also, I've seen some OTIS consoles that did not have Instant MPG on them, although these are extremely rare. If you ever buy a console from somebody (especially on eBay), please verify with the seller that all these functions do work. Also its best to find out what year the OTIS came from, as well as what vehicle..
Otherwise it might be awhile before you get one for that my friend..
