Speedo sensor wiring?
Hi all,
Now I'm on the home straight and i can see the SVA man getting ready to fail me  I have a question about the wiring on my speedo
sensor.
I have a set of caterham gauges, and a hall effect sensor (I think) fits on Seedo cable drive and has three wires.
I know I have to supply it a voltage and the same voltage to the Speedo, It says 8V, but is this absolutely nessercary? or is 12 OK? if not how do i
do it?
also do i give 8v to the sensor and gauge or just the sensor?
any diagrams would be helpful.!
many thanks

This is how I have wired in My VDO gauge.
ETB linky.
I think quite a few of the gauges use the same internals ( regardless of what the name on the front might be !! )
