Dash help
 
Does anyone know the colour of the wires used for the speedo and tacho for a 2000 facelift. Need to wire in this Defi VSD I just brought :)

Thanks in advance.

Get round here and do mine after Tony :thumb:

:D

The speedo feed is on plug B, pin 8 (White)

Tacho is on plug A, pin 12 (Brown)

Though not sure if the diagrams I've got are accurate colour wise, if they don't match up, let me know as I have a few different sets of diagrams - this was the first one that came to hand

Good luck Tony sticking the plastic / Film on the window

Remember no fingerprints :D

Cheers for that Cornelius, I was going to connect it to the rear of the dash unit if possible, but none of those colours match with what's on the plug that feeds the tacho.

At the moment....I don't have any of the film :(

Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr...
 
Now I know why these turn up for sale, never been fitted! :(

Cornelius help!!!!!

I have gone to the ecu...looked high and low for wiring that matches mine without success.

I have a AE800 ECU with three plugs. Blue, Black and Gray.

Any help please...it looks nice lit up, but is depressing showing 0mph all the time.

Sorry mate, went to my daughter's school open evening, just checking up a different diagram

Cornelius 20 November 2007 09:48 PM

plug A, pin 11 - green/black - speedo signal

Plug B, pin 10 - green - rev counter signal

hope this is better

Nope :)

No worries mate, two evenings in the cold rain has seen common sense kick in....

Gonna take it out and shove it back in it's box...I know when I'm beat....

Update:Finally got it working! :)

Seems the 2000 model had it's own magical ECU wiring.

Cornelius if you want a full pinout diagram for the 2000 gimme a shout.

If you don't mind Tony, that would be great!!!
