Speedo sensor help
Hi Guys,
I have a digi dash which is not a brand anyone will have heard of, but my speedo pickup bracket failed and looks like i've killed the pickup as
below:
It obviously just picks up off a magnet, but are these usually the same kind of sensor, i.e. can i just buy another one of a particular type and just
chop and wire it into my existing connector?
Thanks in advance.
Andy

It depends if it’s a Hall effect sensor or reed switch, how many wires are on the connector?

Two wires suggest it may be a variable reluctance sensor (a coil of wire with a magnet) rather than hall effect. Have you tried measuring continuity
across the wires with a multimeter? If it's open circuit then it's dead, otherwise they tend to have a resistance between a few hundred
of ohms up to maybe 1 or 2 kohms.
