Stagea Triptronic Speedo Speed Sensor Cable For Mph Conversion

[meltyface]

Hi Guys,

Bit of a newbie here! I've got a series 2 Stagea with the triptronic auto box. I'm trying to fit a MPH converter. I've read a few posts regarding which wire /wires to use but non seem to match up to the back of my speedo from my triptronic version.

at the back of my speedo I have 4 connectors, each with a load of wires in them.

Does anyone have a pin out or wiring diagram for the speedo for the triptronic so that I can find the KMH speed input wire? Also to check if there is a speed output wire back to the CPU too?

Thanks in advance

Here are some pics for installing a speed converter: if they are not the same as yours you may be able to see what's happening anyway:

Thanks, I did see those pics in another post, but couldn't see how to relate it to my speedo, I seem to have a totally different back, not sure if it is because of the triptronic thing.. here is a picture of the back of my speedo...

All you need is to figure out which is the signal from the gear box and that seems to be the one marked 2P. Then you need to interrupt that signal with an insulator and a tabbed washer. Then depending on the requirements of your converter you may need power and an earth. There are several grounds marked on your cluster and you just have to figure out a power supply. Worst case you get the power from elsewhere.

Or you could just use your computer to produce a new card for your speedo and stick it over the old one thus obviating the need to convert the signal at all.

Thanks, I tried using the one marked 2p, both by the method shown in the above diagram and by tracing the 2p screw back the the plug and splicing in to the wire in the plug, but that didn't work. It just gave me an engine warning light (which I decoded to read number 14 - Vehicle speed sensor error). But the car was still reading KM.

Any further suggestions?
