slightly off topic sorry - mine reads fine.... but never registers full .... do you have issues with that aspect ?

Is it a digital one as well?
What doesn’t register full?

digital..... it only registers 3/4 when full- and the fuel sender has been changed...... also get random flicking of the needle from to max , then min, then back to the correct speed again ( a bit like when you switch engine on )

Interesting, I will see what mine reads when I fill it up again.

I also get the gauge flicking over to max and back every now and again for no reason. I thought it was a bad ground but I have taken a ground directly from the battery so it can’t be that.

What speed sensor are you using?

Interesting stuff,

I'm wondering how "digital" it actually is if it needs a minimum number of pulses to register. A speedo not registering under 20 might be tolerable if it's more accurate above that speed, but it has to be useless as an odometer.

I invested in this digital speedo hoping for better accuracy/ reliable readings, so far I’ve been disappointed. Surely not reading below would be an MOT fail as well?

For me the 6 pulse sensor was super accurate at all speeds above 20, the 8 pulse sensor is accurate as soon as the van starts moving. No dropouts or spiking.
