Missing odometer

[CMason0905]

Hello all! I have been looking at many buses to buy for our first build and researching all I can on this website! I've found a bus that seems very promising, it's a public transport bus and the current owner said the public transport company took out the odometer and had it all on their tablet. Now she has no idea the mileage on it. Can this be fixed? Can an odometer be put back with accurate reading? Is this even legal? I am in Canada (the bus is for sale in the US), so would not knowing the mileage affect transferring ownership or insuring it?
TIA!

In the US, it can just be marked exempt. In my opinion, more than 50% are wrong because they failed and were swapped with one that came to 0 miles. In my case, my new odometer had the miles as of the replacement written on the back and documented by the school district during the sale. When i went to register it, i just put odometer was inaccurate. In US there's something about 100k miles or a certain age of the vehicle where it doesn't matter anymore.


If they havent replaced the ECU, you might be able to connect to the engine computer to get the actual miles.
