I have finally found a speed alert that will set to permanent speedo.There has to be a reason why some will set and others wont.I have looked at the inside of the two units,one unit that will set permanently, and one unit that wont, the inside looks exactly the same,the circuit board,everything.I was thinking that if a few people can post their speed alert details which is on a sticker on the back of the speed alert unit,that there might be some units with a different part number,or maybe even from a certain build date.
The unit that wouldnt set permanently which was originally in my 1995 VS has a build date of 17-10-95 and a GMH part number 92048774.
The other unit that will set to permanent speedo has a build date of 24-6-97 and has the part number 92053373.
I thought it might be just the later ones that set, but the VR ones are the same also,some set,others dont.So I cant see how when it was built would really have anything to do with it.
If anyone is intertested in all this and wants to help work out why some set and others dont,you can help by posting your speed alert units details and whether it sets to permanent speedo or not.The speed alert unit just slides out of the front of the dash,I used a small screwdriver to get in behind one side of the unit and gently levered it outwards to unclip it.It will just pull straight out once one side is unclipped.The build date and part number is on a couple of stickers at the back of the unit.Cheers.
