speedometer way incurrate help!

[buneyha]

hi,
I recently got a new CRX and my speedo is very very offseted.
when I drive 60 on a 60 zone everyone just flys pass me.
even when I drive 70 everyone just keeps tail gating me and over taking me.

does anyone know how to adjust the calibration on the speedo?
would appreciate it if there's a step by step guide with picture somewhere.

thanks

i dont think theres a DIY solution for it.
take it to either an auto electrics shop or tyre shop that will re-calibrate the speedo.

[buneyha]

ok thanks.. I'll do that after my exam.. hopefully doesn't cost so much

HSC trials.


Anyway , perhaps your speed sensor ( located above the differential) is loose or close to stuffed ?

[fadz]

Jomsy its a place in Marrickville
il get u the address if u want..or giv it to ECU MAN let him do a DIY for al the rest who hav the same prob :D

[buneyha]

I got a differ exam cause I was sick (uh hm..) :p
it's less then 12hr from now :'( so stress and tired

anyway driving 100 next to a friend wouldn't work, cause it's not set offset it's more like a ratio. and no it's not my wheels I checked the size already it's correct.

and I don't think ECU-MAN lives in adel hehe

so I guess I'll just have to find a guage shop somewhere in adelaide and put it there.
my friend also got the same problem with his crx but his is offseted by +10km/h

actually dude ECU-MAN DOES live in Adelaide and if John is too lazy to fix it you can try gauge works on Port road.

[buneyha]

ey? cool.!!! wanna meet up? lol
na I feel bad disturbing people.
but if he can.. why not :D

thought all the good people left this place already ^_^

[ECU-MAN]

what year is your crx ???

[buneyha]

89, everything is stocked. :o

except the filter which I think is making my car drink fuel.

[Snoop_gee]

@ least ur speedometer works to some degree man, when i bought ma car i had no clue as it was stuck on 0km/h it's a great excuse for speeding :P yeah rite hehe j/k
but yeah i got it fixed new speedo cable did wonders :D

[mr crex]

John ... I got a 90 CRX SiR cluster you can fool with if you like ... its just sitting around collecting dust.

[buneyha]

that means my speedo won't ever be touched... :(

[viperx]

maybe everyone is just going faster than the limit... as usual

[jdmlvn]

[ECU-MAN]
