That, I don't know, yet. The TB42E has an extra terminal 2P which goes to the ECM. I did ask whether it was an input to the speedo or an output from the speedo to the ECM, for engine and auto control, but I can't find the post for the question or answer. So I have just run a test with the oscilloscope and the 2P creates a very weird pulse of about
35 millivolts and looks like a heartbeat on a hospital monitor. Can someone post up a picture of the back of a TD42 gauge cluster, please.
Well finally something has gone right.
Fixed the speedo using highly advanced tooling.
I just took it down the street and did the usual banging dash as I have done a hundred times but to no avail.
I finally cracked it and smashed the top of the dash pretty hard and it bounced back to the other side and is currently reading exact speed...lol
Not sure how long that will last for but one problem temporary solved for now!
You're ready for the simmo! HahaQuote:

Being a qualified electronic technician I can verify that is a tried and proven repair practice.Quote:
