If you're referring to resetting the trip odometer on a Pontiac Solstice — that’s simple:
Just press and hold the “TRIP” button on the instrument cluster (located on the dashboard near the speedometer) until the trip reading resets to zero. This button toggles between trip A, trip B, and the main odometer. You can use it to track mileage between fill-ups or trips.
However, if you're asking about resetting the actual vehicle odometer (the total mileage) — that is not possible. The main odometer reading is stored securely in the vehicle’s instrument cluster and/or body control module (BCM), and it is illegal in many regions to alter or roll back this value without authorization.
While it can definitely be done when necessary, like when replacing an instrument cluster, for instance, only a certified dealership or licensed repairer, with documentation and proper reporting, can update the mileage, and even then, the new odometer must either match the old mileage or be labeled as replaced.
