Celsius to Fahrenheit?

Hello, I have a 4Runner in Panama, but am used to the temperature being in Fahrenheit. Does anyone know how I can convert to Fahrenheit from Celsius? I can see the "F" is there, but it's not lit, so I know it is pre-determined to be able to do it.

Thanks!!

There is this book, and I can't remember where it is located in the 4Runner, but it has some mexican dudes name on it, I think his name was Juser Manuel or something like that (dunno know why they named that book after him but I digress) and it tells you all these fancy things about the settings in this here car. It really is cool, it even has one of them breakdowns in the front that shows which page to turn to. That Juser Manuel guy must have been a pretty smart cookie...
 
I always use:

Tf = (9/5)*Tc+32

Tc = temperature in degrees Celsius, Tf = temperature in degrees Fahrenheit

Funny you should post this. I actually want my temperature to be in Celsius and NOT Fahrenheit. I have it on my list of things that I want changed when I go in to the dealer to hook up to their puter.

Very funny, Aggie - I have a Manual in both English and Spanish, and it doesn't say how to do this...thus, the reason for my question. Being that you are so clever, instead of wasting your time and sending a hilarious email, you could have reviewed your "Juser Manuel" and seen that. Next time, don't bother replying, unless you are going to provide a solution or a meaningful comment. :AK47:

Hey, next time you decide to reply to a thread on the forum why don't you read the manual for the Interweb. Just then you might find that you are posting on a vBulletin Forum, not sending an email. One must be smarter than the computer in order to use it...

That being said I am pretty sure I held down one of the buttons on the little temperature display and changed it by accident. Instead of asking strangers on the internet to help you, go figure it out yourself or take it to the dealer. ;):
 
I thought this was the reason for this forum, to ask questions and get answers, and share experiences. So dumb of me...I apologize

Hell no! Didn't you know the whole point of forums is to brag about what you have done, and what you will do to your vehicle?!?

You want us to hold your private parts for you too while you pee???

If it's in Celcius, it's from a metric country. Metric countries are usually in the northern hemisphere, thus always cold. So if your 4Runner is showing C - know that the C stands for an outside that is Chilly, or Cold or Crap weather. If you live in a country still using fahrenheit, you're far enough south that outside will be above zero most of the time and you will see F, or Fair, possibly Fresh, maybe even Febrile, Feverish, or Flaming effing hot.

So, no need to change.
 
Update for you guys: At the dealer yesterday with there computer hooked up turning things off and on. We could not find a way to change the temperature display mode in Fahrenheit to Celsius or vice verse. We looked through most of the sub-menus to no avail. We could change the units for volume from gallons to liters and distance from miles to kilometers but not the temperature units. :shrug:

I really wish that we (e.g. us owners) could get a copy of that software program so that we could just hook up to our 4R's and adjust things over time as we see fit.

The 4th generation has the same restriction -- you could not change the reading. There are some threads discussing the issue, but the net is that no one has found a way to convert the display.
 
Help

Hello Nev7,

Hope you are doing well. I can help you if you want. I actually live in Panama so if you want to help I am here. I will check my manual when I get home tonight. Did you buy your car a Ricardo Perez S.A.? Which model?

Take Care
