Our PCB reads resistance from the fuel sending unit and converts that to needle movement. If your sender – or the wiring going to our PCB – is faulty, the needle is reacting to their mixed signals.
Archives: FAQs
Can I take my tachometer signal directly from the coil?
Yes. We can use a signal from your coil or from your ECU – we just need to know how many pulses per revolution, so it can be programmed properly.
If my tach signal is only 4 volts, will it work with your tachometer?
If your tach signal is less than 5 volts it will require a pull up resistor to read properly.
What kind of sending unit do I need for my speedometer?
We can work with any brand of sending unit if it does not generate more than 32,000 pulses per mile.
How accurate are your speedometers and can it be adjusted if I change tire sizes?
Our PCB counts up to 32,000 pulses per mile – or approximately one pulse for every 6” you travel which provides highly accurate readings. Adjusting the speed takes only a few minutes using the thumb drive and a PC.
How does the PCB connect to my car?
It takes power from your vehicle electrical system and input signals from the sender for each of the gauge functions. Connections are made with color coded wires coming from harnesses that plug into the PCB.
What is the PCB?
It is the electronic brain in our system. It takes input as electronic signals from the function senders, interprets them and then sends signals to the stepper motors driving the needles to make them move appropriately.
How long will it take to build my wheel my way?
We typically build and ship all our standard series wheels within 10 working days. Wheels with custom paint or wood grips typically take between 15 & 20 working days. Adding leather to any wheel will generally increase the overall build time by 15 more working days.
How are CON2R steering wheels made?
Here is an article from Classic Trucks that details our steering wheel construction process.
Are there any limits to what you will do for a custom wheel?
We will look at, evaluate and respond to any request you might have for a custom wheel.
