Speedo correction?

Ozzy · Apr 13, 2009

Hi all. Just a quick one (not sure if topic been mentioned before) Will the jaycar speedo corrector MK11 work on my 05 DX model? or is the speedo controlled by mech cable only?

Laith · Apr 13, 2009

Hi Ozzy

Yes it will work.

I have one.

Shonky · Apr 13, 2009

Yes it works, I have one also.

Al · Apr 14, 2009

guys how much are they? and what range of correction do they offer?
thanks

Ozzy · Apr 14, 2009

Thank you. I bought and assembled the kit at work today but, my next question is where can I find a wiring diagram to identify the speed sensor wire?

Al · Apr 14, 2009

sorry ignore....google is my friend

"This kit alters the speedometer signal up or down from 0% to 99% of the original signal. "
RRP $54.95

do they adjust the odometer as well as speedo?

Ozzy · Apr 16, 2009

Yes they do, it just alters the signal coming from the speed sensor, if there is any error between the speedometer and the odometer readings it will not fix this.

so its possible that some people are using this kit to reduce or even stop cars putting on mileage? ie set correction to 0%? or will that trigger some alarm.

Laith · Apr 16, 2009

Just unplug the the plug on the speedo sender on the gearbox.

No it wont set off an alarm. But you also wont know how fast you are going or when to change you oil next. :big_smile:

Just about any car can have the speedo disabled, the Navara is no different, hopefully people fit these things to correct their speedo which should then also correct the odometer, but there are many tricks people do to keep the mileage down on cars, common one is to go and buy another instrument cluster, stick that in the car, put the current one in storage, then when selling they put the original one back in place.

Once upon a time, a drill with reverse and a church-going granny were all you needed to sell a car for twice its value. :dancing:

Quite a few cars these days wont start with the speedo cable disconnected. Tend to be more of the Euro types though.

Laith · Apr 17, 2009

That would be nice if the gearbox sensor fails or dirt in the plug.

Ozzy · Apr 17, 2009

Has any one actualy installed this kit? What is the colour of the speed sensor wire? Can anyone help??? PLease??

Shonky · Apr 17, 2009

I have installed the kit (and now removed as I sold the car), I can't tell you the exact colours, but I'll try see if I can find the wiring diagram I used to work out which wires they were.

Just bringing an old thread back to life--any updates on what folks have done OR just living with the speedo being out 10%

taller tyres is the easiest way to get a partial fix.
