When ever you put your odometer on Trip A lets say.

I believe ON means that the seat belt reminder is on, and vice versa for OFF.

I read somewhere i think on clubsciontc that B-on and B-Off is for the Needles bounce on start up.

And S-Off and S-on Was for seat belt?

Actually i found it.... (hidden away in the silly FAQ section )

According to the FAQ:

Section C #9

How do I enable/disable the 'needle jump' when starting the car using the trip meter button?
if you don't like the cool 'needle jump' feature when you first start your car, then you're a retard... er, i mean, if you would like to disable this annoying feature or if you turned it off by accident
when NOT following the directions on the other trip meter Easter eggs, then follow these steps (similar steps as seat belt reminder buzzer, but you start with the LCD on 'Trip A' or 'Trip B', NOT 'ODO':

Step 1 turn the key to the 'ON' position. using the trip meter button, toggle the LCD until 'Trip A' or 'Trip B' is displayed on the LCD, NOT 'ODO'.
Step 2 turn the key off. now, push and hold the trip meter button. while holding the trip meter button, turn the key to 'ON'. continue to hold the trip meter button for 10 seconds.
Step 3 the needle jump by default is set to on. once you've held the trip meter button for ten seconds, the LCD will then display 'S-OFF', telling you that the needle jump is now turned off.
You can now let go of the trip meter button. if pressed again in this mode, you will set the buzzer back to on, 'S-ON'.

*Note* if the battery or combination meter is disconnected, you will have to follow the procedure again.

Hope this clears it up

S stands for ‘sweep’ meaning the needle on the odometer and rpm gauge does an initial sweep when first starting the car or turning the ignition to the ‘on’ position. It’s a feature that STi’s have on their gauge clusters.

both Wrong it actually means sweep for the animation of the needles when you turn on the car like turn the engine on itself not just the ignition to on
ask for what Camry is describing it only works on trip a and what it does is it brings up dashes that start to disappear and once they disappear it does all zeros and then goes back to trip a I have no idea what setting it turns on and off or whatever it does but it is not the sweep

check the video that I am attaching that shows the sweep on and off


by the way I know this is a super super super super Old Post but I just had to correct it
