    Hi, Mat

    Old dials work with a magnet rotating with the cable coming from the gear box...

    i have somewhere a very very old kit intended to be a speed limit alert : It works with a self made core coil fixed at the rear of the odometer.

    If interested ask me ...

    For rear gear ... thinking to it make me laugh !!! : How much "reverse" miles do you really drive in your car lifetime ... ???

    Default

    Possibility to hack the current one too.

    If your current cable go to a cluster 'motor', thereafter this motor use a serie or Gear and goes to your KM/Miles counter. Is it possible to remove the adapter + motor and read from that with hall effect sensor.. i think so.

    mmm seems i had the same idea of Alain after all

    It's not a bug, it's a random feature.
    There's no problem, only learning opportunities.
