DIC went crazy today

So I just got off work today and was getting ready to go get some gas. So I checked the range on my DIC, well tried to check the range. When I switched it over 一切都在中國. Yea everything was in Chinese . The only thing I could understand is the MPH because it was still in normal numbers. Tried turning the car off and back on and it stayed the same. So I went to the gas station and got gas and on the drive home it just changed back to English. Anybody have this happen to them?

I check the range of my DIC often. It's never appeared Chinese.

Never had that happen. Were you at a Chinese restaurant when you started it?

lol and this is why I love this forum. Was having a crapy day and you all just made it a little better. Sorry did not get a pic of the DIC, but if it starts spouting Chinese again I will make sure I get one lol
