Hi to all.
My digital speedometer shares an input signal with the ECU. With both connected the speedo reads properly, however it trips a fault code on the ECU. With the speedo out of circuit the ECU does not read any faults.
I measured the voltage from the speed sensor to the ECU and it measures 0.117 to 4.73v pulse (4 times per wheel rotation). With the speedo in circuit the voltage drops to 0.19 to 1.73 volts, which i assume is why the ECU finds a fault as it needs at least 4.7v.
I really dont know how to resolve this, i have looked at using an op amp to somehow compensate for the drop in voltage but cant figure it out. I need some pointers as to how I can fix this problem. Any help is much appreciated.
