A common problem many have discovered , the new jaycar speedo corrector kit doesn't work to well. Not sure what people are using now.

It should work once you get it picking up the correct output type
If Its Got Gas Or Ass Count Me In.if it cant be fixed with a hammer you have an electrical problem

I had to add a pullup resistor before it worked for me after ecu. even then it was jumpy and terrible.

My VDO corrector works great.

My speedo seems spot on with a 10% correction with diff and tyre size change.


My cruise won't work but I think its unrelated as it didn't work without the corrector either. My ECU is happy as a pig in mud with it and the speedo itself too.

wasn't cheap though, about $400 iirc.

Out of interest I've used the Dakota digital SGI5E (from memory)
Awesome unit with signal conversion between hall and reluctir both ways with pulse correction. Only $160 from Australian stock last time.
