Acumen BEC gear indicator

The car i bought has one fitted but i am having great difficulties programming it, does anyone else here have one fitted to their BEC? i could do with some help with it.

It learns 1st and 2nd fine but it doesnt want to know 3rd and above. wiring looks fine on it.

help?





Sorry about my spelling, im an engineer and only work in numbers.

I have one, never been able to get it working properly. It learns all the gears ok but as soon as i rev past 2000rpm it loses them. Pretty useless....

speedo works fine, alltho its on another proxi sensor its seeing the nodes a giving a signal fine, rev counter also works fine. wiring looks sound too.

good news someone had it working fine, it just seems the trend is that its not very good.

i do hit neutral between it learning 1st and 2nd and it learns then quickly, but i drove 3 or 4 miles trying different revs (and holding there for a while) and i gave up.

i did mine and found it easier to put the car on axel stands and run the car at around 4000 rpm works a treat saves all the hassle of driving on the road and concerntrting to get it wright.

i will say it finds it harder to get the gears wright at low rpm as it sometimes cannot differenciate the pulses at low rpm.

i did it on axle stands originaly. But it still didnt do 3rd gear (at 4000 rpm). Might try it again and hold it at 9000 rpm. damn thing.
