to reset the trip on the mileage screen is the black stalk button next to it. to reset MPG etc. just hold down the reset button on the underside of the right stalk.                                                                                                                                                                     as for the green light. im not going to say much incase im wrong, but i have one for the brightness of the dash lights and one to adjust the dip of the headlight

ah on the TOP of the right stalk - that controls the intermittent wipers - i.e. long delay or short delay between wipes

other buttons are for the cruise control  :smiley:
