Hi -
This is my first post - after reading some of the information provided on this site I am somewhat intimidated...!
My problem: I have a Ford GT40 replica that uses a Smiths Electronic speedometer....the speedo has never worked, I have substituted another speedo head and have removed the speedo and the Hall effect senor from the vehicle and set up a test bench.
I am getting 0.01 v as an output from the sensor - I suspect that this is the cause of the problem but want to make sure that I am testing the sensor correctly....
Do I have to have a pull up resister in order to test it correctly?
Thanks for your help!
