Grazer Posted February 2, 2004 Share Posted February 2, 2004 Took the Supe out this morning, and after installing my new dials (pics here) as per Hooper's instructions (here), my speedo doesn't work. The needle rests snapped when I was trying to swap them over, so with the engine off the needle sits around 6 o'clock, and when I turn the ignition on, the needle jumps up to zero - then it just sits there. No fluctuation at all - and the odometer doesn't clock any miles. Quite handy for keeping the mileage down - but not so handy for speed cameras All the other dials work fine - any ideas?

roscodav Posted February 2, 2004 Share Posted February 2, 2004 possibly connections of the back? I had a number of extra wires into mine which i guess were for the import conversion. They were very easy to knock off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grazer Posted February 2, 2004 Author Share Posted February 2, 2004 There were a few extra wires, but I thought I had secured them all on. Guess I'll have to take it all apart again to check Anyone got any other suggestions before I take it all apart and put it back together! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supra ST Myster Posted February 2, 2004 Share Posted February 2, 2004 Does sound like a bad wire as the wire from the connector on the left hand side of the gauge cluster as looking at it from the front, blue/red is the speed signal wire, which then also goes to the odo, so check this wire, possibly the converter if you have one??

Grazer Posted February 3, 2004 Author Share Posted February 3, 2004 Problem solved - ignition & speedo wires were the wrong way round - doh Now I can see how fast I'm going I also got around to wiring up the backlight on my Greddy boost guage - think I'll go for a drive in the dark tonight Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
