Hi was curious to see whether or not I can install an "Auto Meter" electronic speedometer onto the dash with a pod. Some say it will not work but I heard from other guys that said it will work. Do we need to tap into the cars speedometer and have it wired or someting?

 

Why the big size font?

 

Because I am tired and really could not see that small of a font. Thats why

 

OK, just curious. I think it got me now aswell. Big letters from now on it is..
BYE!

 

Can you install an electronic speedometer?

 

Have not got a clue, but I would have guess yes. There must be an outputwire from the bcm that gives you speed. this should be able to put in to your new speedometer.

 

I am going to just go to a Chrysler dealership and see what they say I do not see how its not possible. Could be wrong though.

 

I would think it will probably be quite difficult to do, as the repair manual says :

translation : the dash module has circuitry to decode the pulse rate from the CAB to drive the needle ........
But I am probably overlooking something.

 

Aftermarket speedos usually use pulsed input to calculate speed. Some use their own pulse generators or only work with certain manufactures outputs, but others are programmable and work with any pulsed output. You should be able to tap into the signal wire from the sensor and use a programmable aftermarket speedo.

 

Took the car to a dealer they say it is possible to add an Ulltra-Light electronic speedometer..

 

Why do you want to put an aftermarket speedo in your crossfire anyway?

 

Because I think they look cool. Carbon fiber speedo looks nice to get.

 

Had the car in at Meinekee to install this speedometer, only thing he nneds is some kind of a wiring electrical harness that the factory speedomeer is connected to. Is there any diagram for this? He cant find one and i cant really find one.

 

I once preferred dice and girls knickers hanging from the mirror.
Know I prefer little altars with crosses and such.

 

I assume no one has a diagram....

First off, the techs at Meineke know absolutely zip about the electronics in these cars and regardless of what some tech there said, you're not going to grab any speed information off the harness going to the cluster because it is transmitted via CAN. Your aftermarket speedometer will need a pulsed output (VSS) from body control module. I've attached a picture below for your reference to keep you from really messing up the wiring in your car but I do not condone what you're doing and I accept no liability should anything happen as a result of the use this image or the information it contains therein. (You should see that I'm protecting my аss here so what you're going to be digging into has the potential to harm or kill yourself and other if done incorrectly so don't take this warning lightly)

 

Yeah these techs are retarded. My car wont start now because the Security is disabled or whatever they mean and had to hook a device up to get the Security off.

 

No one has the interest and knowledge except rcompart and if I were you I would heed his words.
Effing up your car for something useless but in your eyes 'cool', is hardly worth the effort.

 

I figured no one would have interest. Thanks anyway
