These pages list programmers sold for instrument-cluster repair and for writing a mileage figure into a cluster or another module that stores it. The section sits with the flash and device programmers. A tool listing is not a procedure, and it is not evidence that a particular vehicle is supported.
Recorded mileage
In Great Britain, the Office of Fair Trading treated adjusting an odometer so that it shows an inaccurate mileage as potentially criminal under the Consumer Protection from Unfair Trading Regulations 2008 and the Fraud Act 2006. Its 2012–2013 review of mileage-correction businesses followed a conviction of a service provider on those provisions. Sunshine Technology, maker of DIGIPROG, also states that a deliberately false mileage report is a criminal offence.
A workshop reason for touching the figure is a failed cluster, or a used replacement whose stored reading is not the reading already recorded for that vehicle. The figure written should be the mileage the vehicle has done, and the job should be recorded. Several modules can store distance. Changing only the number on the display does not by itself make those copies agree. This page does not describe how a reading is changed.

Memory programmers already listed elsewhere
These are general device programmers. Workshops use them when cluster data is held in a serial memory or microcontroller. They are not dedicated odometer tools, and their pages stay in Flash and Device Programmers.
- Orange5. Scorpio-LK describes it as a general-purpose memory and microcontroller programmer.
- Elrasoft UPA-USB
- Xhorse VVDI PROG and Multi-PROG
Names on seller lists
See odometer tool names in circulation for products advertised by retailers where a manufacturer page was not established. A low-priced full set from an unrelated shop is not the maker's tool.
Devices sold to stop an odometer counting while the vehicle is driven are a different product. They are not listed in this section.
