hey guys i have an 1995 vs calais and iv just fitted a t5 gearbox, car drives great and runs well and goes well, only thing is speedo doesnt work, i have tryed two speed senders and 2 dashs, motor didnt go when i got it so i have just put motor and box in it so dont no the history of the car, i have checked wiring and ecu, checked with multimeter very thing appears to be ok and cant fined a reason y it wont work, anyone point me in any direction?
Maybe the BCM?...on the wiring diagram the BCM forms part of the speedo wiring but I'm only guessing. This has been asked before so you might be best doing a search.
