so I’ve finally finished my conversion of a vy ute from v6 man to v8 auto and I’ve only noticed when I went to go for a drive.
that the speedo is not working. And the Speedo on the screen wasn’t either.
Also on the drive the gearbox would not come out of first whilst in drive I have gears 1 n d r
I’m thinking this has to do with each other as the computer doesn’t know what speed I’m doing. to change the gears. hence to maybe why I only get 1 R N D
I have an auto vy in the yard for parts so if it’s a part I’m missing I will have it.
I feel I could wire it up’ but need more of an idea
Any ideas anyone....?

Is the manual loom still connected to the pcm?
You say auto engine loom is in? If so, what is it connected to?
I have the v8 auto wiring harness in plugged into the motor gearbox ecu pim tpc.
The only plug that connects it to the ute Is plugged in to my v6 manual wiring loom which is under passenger side glove box were it connects which is connected to the bcm/cluster. Il assume to the fuses also ?
