The Corrado doesn't store a service interval in the dashboard or ECU. The most common problem is that either a short circuit or a jump start (or even alternator problems) has scrambled the chip storing the memory.

 

Most likely that the EEPROM on the dash motherboard has been corrupted.

I can fix this for you if you want, basically replace the EEPROM with a working PROM and store the mileage reading you previously had.

It could be a dry joint, but easy enough to fix. PM me if interested.
