ECU not reporting speed

[foxdie]

Hi all,

My EvoScan isn't logging speed, at first I thought this was due to the fact the Speed Pulse Signal wire (D-16 aka Pin 86, white with green stripe (http://trackmygps.co.uk/images/misc/VR4%20Engine%20ECU%20Pinout.gif)) was cut, I reconnected it today but it's STILL not reporting a speed.

This car came from Ebony & Ivory, do they do something weird in addition to cutting this wire?

There is always the small chance the wire ISN'T conducting still despite being crimped, but I'll recrimp that again at the weekend just to be sure.

Hope you find out because mine, also from E&I, is the same though I haven't investigated 'cos I'm lazy!
BTW I was only joking about rewiring everything in the car with those connectors.

Alan, these connectors will shortly be holding the very substance of the universe together, let alone my car :D

Make sure you solder the buggers too then... I quite like my existence.

Mines from E&I i just reconnected the cut wire and it just worked.

It may have something to do with the kph/mph speed converter they installed (presumably installed at any rate).
You may want to trace the wiring for that to find out what they did. It may be that the speed wire is disconnected in another place also.
