RS2 Tacho position

Call this guy a call 07725760139
He is breaking an RS2 on eBay.

I know it's a MPH version but you can swap the faces over

Behind the mechanism there is a VDO sticker with K=4073 Impulses/km. Most probably the miles version will have another mechanism there.

[Tonks4x4]

A mph version should still work, it only receives the same signal from sender

[Tonks4x4]

I may have a spare speedo section from an S2 if you want me to send that over to play with instead of spending lots of money on a replacement just yet

[Billman]

That would be great. Can you maybe also check the number at the back?

[Tonks4x4]

Yes I will check tomorrow when I'm at work

[Billman]

Here the mechanism again. Do you think that is it possible to check function outside of the car?

Hello, for Autocheck problem can you try with another Autocheck? On eBay you can find it also out from a complete set, for LCD problem is a problem that some S2/RS2 etc have, I mean LCD of board computer not of Autocheck.

[Billman]

Hi, I am concerned about the Autocheck not the BC. That does't work eitherway because I use an aftermarket ECU. There is a problem with the onboard electronic as the extra module I have that shows boost on it works always fine. That means this dot-matrix display works well but the signal it gets is not right.


About the Speedometer i Connected 12 V to the one side of this coil and the needle moves around now......I will try it tomorrow on the car.

This is how it looks when it asks to press the brake pedal to check the light bulbs



This is how it looks when it has checked the bulbs and the external controller takes over.

what is the module you have to show boost? I've not seen that before looks like a trick upgrade

Last time I was there Will at VRS had an RS2 speedo

[Billman]

Any link or email from them?

This boost module is made from a guy in Germany. It shows actual boost, last 5 second maximum boost and last 5 second minimum boost.

Vas the clocks I have are not S2

Here is the part number for the speedo.

If the parts are any use to you, you are still more than welcome to have it.

[Billman]

Can you please check this side?
