just out of curiosity, what does the old module do hooked up to the sig-gen?

I haven't pulled the speedometer from my truck yet. I will let everyone know tomorrow, when I make the change.

Also, I'll throw up a tutorial on connecting the speedo on the bench. What would the correct forum for that be? This one?

Thanks!
