huh?

 

change or delete the original meter for a autometer

ORIGINAL


AUTOMETER,but have a problem for vtec signal on original meter

 

v-tech doesn't really affect the gauges in anyway, so I don't see a problem in you running all autometers

you will need to wire up some lights, signals, a CEL, and figure out a way to get the fuel level gauge to work with the OE honda sender...or figure a way to replace the OE sender with one that puts out the correct ohms

 

You will need to get a RPM activated switch from auto meter, and have that activate V-TEC. The stock computer needs to know the car is above 14 mph i belive to turn on V-TEC.

a ok thanks,you have the pics or the links of this auto meter
thanks

you could always read the resistance or voltage of the VSS when it is reading 14+mph and then create a circuit which simulates this, so the ECU thinks its always 16mph and will still activate VTEC

ok thanks,i'm look

 

The VSS is a pulsed input....simply applying a voltage of some sort won't cut it.

 

so..... make a pulsing circuit..

 

You can also talk to Michael Ecker at Ecker Honda in Kaiserslautern GE. He changed out everything also and got it all to work, we even had a fuel guage. He speaks and reads english if you don't speak German. IM me if you need contact info. Larry
