SPEED CALIBRATION
There are two methods for calibrating the speedometer, auto cal and adjust. Either one can be used. Auto cal requires
that you have one measured mile marked out (km for metric), this is the best method to start with if your speedometer
needs a lot of correction. Adjust requires you to follow another vehicle going at a set speed, time yourself over a mile to
determine your speed, or use a hand held GPS with speed indication.

Speed Calibration
Press and release the switch until “
adjust
” is displayed, then press and hold the switch until the display blanks.
Release the switch. The display will show the current calibration value.
Release the switch. The display will swit
ch to “unit” and light up the current speed unit (MPH or km/h).
Press and hold the switch to keep the current unit or press and release the switch to change the unit.
Next the system will restart with the current speed shown highlighted on the message display. The speedometer will show
the speed reading. Begin driving at a known speed. When the switch is pressed, the speedometer reading will begin
increasing until the switch is released. The next time the switch is pressed, the reading will begin decreasing until it is
released. When the speedometer is correct you can release the switch. The new calibration will be saved if no adjustments
are made for 10 seconds.

Speed Calibration
Press and release the switch until “
auto cal
” is displayed, then press and hold the switch until the display blanks.
Release the switch. The display will show the current calibration value.
Release the switch. The display will switch to “unit” and light up the current speed unit (MPH or km/h).
Press and hold the switch to keep the current unit or press and release the switch to change the unit.
Next the
message display will show “
pulse count
” and “
000000
”. You should now begin driving the measured mile. The
message display will count the number of pulses received from the sensor. The message display cannot be used to
determine when a mile has been driven. Once you reach the end of your marked mile, press and release the switch again.
The calibration is now done.
PLEASE NOTE:
Common problems during calibration:
VSS (vehicle speed sensor) wires should be isolated from the ignition system. Coils, plug wires, or
tachometer signal wires
routed near or with the VSS wire can cause many problems. If you are seeing
erratic speedometer operation
,
registering speed at a standstill
, or
speed changes with engine
RPM
, please double-check your VSS wire and tachometer wire routing making sure the VSS wire is
separated from any ignition system components.
If your
speedometer registers ‘
’
all the time, the unit is not receiving a VSS signal, please double-
check your sensor wiring and mounting. The speedometer cannot be properly calibrated until you are
registering a stable, but incorrect speedometer reading.
Please see
Speed sensor voltage checks
on the last page for assistance in checking your sensor.
