electronic speed sensor caliberation

[James Supra]

Is there any kind of speed sensor that can be used with the g4 storm to make my digital dash work again? Maybe a hall effect type sensor? Since the computer install the digital dash has stopped reading speed and odometer. The original speed sensor on the back of the dash cluster worked with electronic pulses to convert the dash to read out digitally. This has three wires ground, power and trigger for pulse width which originally went back to my factory ecu but is now not doing anything. Although it is still cable driven from the gearbox it has this speed sensor as well for the digital dash setup. Maybe there is something that can replace this and read speed and odometer again from an imput on the link ecu. Any thoughts welcome

Hi James,

I am finding your setup a little hard to understand. If there is a driven cable to the dash and a sensor at the dash for converting this to a trigger signal, why does the ECU need to supply a signal to the dash for speed also?

What year and model of vehicle is this setup on? 

If you can get the speed trigger signal to the G4 storm, it should not be a problem to use the ECU to output a signal to drive the speed at the dash.

These are roughly the steps you would need to take:

1) Connect the speed signal to a spare digital input wire on the G4 Storm.

2) Set the digital input up in PCLink,  for function select 'Speed'                 

3) Connect a spare auxiliary output pin on the G4 Storm to the speed input pin on the dash.

4) Set the auxiliary output up in PCLink, for function select 'Speedo Out'
