Hi Guys,
My greengauges speedo is not working. It lights up with the lights and the LCD display is on with and without ignition. I am using a small sensor with two magnets on the prop. Think the problem is there. How can I check the sensor is working?
Cheers,
Pat....

I've told you once

Yeah, I know, but want to see if anyone else has had any other experiences etc....
So there....
P.S. At least my bonnet fits!

So does mine now!

Hi Pat

Is it the small reed switch type? If so you can test the speedo by connecting a switch instead of the sensor and flicking it on and off repeatedly. you can also test the sensor by fitting a lamp or meter between the switch wire and the chassis and spinning the prop, the lamp should flash

Think it's a reed switch. Will try a switch as this will eliminate the speedo. Can't spin the prop though as the engine and g/box are all fitted and tunnel top on.

Hi Pat

Best make sure it is a read switch, mines looks like a threaded bar about 6mm diameter with 2 blue wires

they also do a hall efect type which is different

Have you seen the help files on there web site?

Adrian

Yeah, tried the website but no joy. Mine is a small threaded bar, about 5mm diameter with a red/black wire.
