Hi guys,

I bought an HKS Type 1 Turbo Timer a while back, fitted it fine but it kept reading the wrong speed and therefore mucking up all the other features it has over the Type 0 timer. After a while I realised it was reading KMH as MPH an vice-versa!

I got the speedo signal wire straight from the ECU (before the converter) so im geussing this is why its reading it back to front. Do you think if I took the reading from AFTER the converter it would be normal?

I havent looked at the converter yet but im guessing this is possible??

Thanks alot,

Tom

i thought they need tapping onto the rpm signal mate, surely this doesnt change regardless of whether the car is reading in kph or mph?

Nah the Type 1 has an RPM signal wire and a Speed sensor wire, the RPM is almost bang on, but the speed is reading back to front.
