SpeedM8 Chip or dashboard problem ... please advise.
Posted: Sun Jan 11, 2009 2:52 pm
My dashboard only has 3 wires going into the back (apart from the 2 looms at the top). They come from my Speedm8 Kph to Mph chip - red wire to Ig (gives 12 – 14v), Black to SP+ and White to SP-. There is no wire to SP Out . The only wire left from the speedm8 is a grey wire that is also connected to my cruise control and is blanked off with insulating tape & I am not sure whether it should also be connected to the SP out?
I disconnected the wires recently to install the low coolant alarm light in the dashboard and as part of my alarm fitting. I thought that I had labelled & rewired them correctly but the grey wire from the Speedm8 was blanked off with insulation tape which I feel I would have only done if it was not used but I could be mistaken.
Since or soon after then, I have not had any speedo or odometer readings & get a flashing hold light. If I bypass the Speedm8 chip, I get the readings but in Kph. I don’t want to connect the grey wire without confirmation that it should be used.
Any advice?
