Anyone ever have to trouble-shoot Smith\'s electronic speedo?
Hi guy's...
Just wonedering if anyone has ever had any luck in fixing this goofy problem. I have Smith's instruments and when the parts arrived, a VDO electronic pick-up was shipped. That did not work and I have since received a correct Smith's pick-up. I installed it with no issues, and the speedo seems to behave more like a tach than a speedometer! When sitting still, when I rev the motor to 2,000 to 3,000 the speedo goes to 30-50 MPH! Go figure. Any thoughts? Could the speedo head have been damaged by the VDO pick-up? Anything obvious I am missing? Any other CAV owners out there have the same issue?
Here's the Smith's parent site with some good info!
