Some dudes got greesy fingers for "fixing" dashes?? Tongue


Top tip lift bonnet and releese speedo cable from its crips get back into car and you have loads of play for removing clip and for putting it back together.

Do you have a 4 cylinder or 6 cylinder engine 2PAC?

The rev counter wont read properly on the Carlton / Senator digidashes as they expect 6 pulses per revolution (6 cylinder engine) as opposed to 4 per revolution the 4 cylinder engines give out.

You could try and retro fit Astra GTE Digi dash, but these are much narrower than the carlton dash.
