here goes:
I have purchased a Daytona Velona speedometer which requires a digital pulse input for speed sensing. Purchase a passive speed sensor (the one that works without a magnet. Has 3 wires (positive for power, ground and pulse output). Connected everything up:
1. Speed sensor connected near the wheel and within 3mm from the disc brake plate bolts
2. Pulse sensor wire output to speedometer
and powered up the speedometer. I have an issue of huge disturbance from revving the engine causing the speedometer backlight to flicker and registering 0-40kmph speed even though im stationary.
On the move, the speedo just cant register constant speed and keep jumping all over the place and not showing any accurate speed at all. Its basically an ornament now.
The tachometer (same brand and model) next to it is perfectly fine and not experiencing any flickering of the LED backlight.
I checked all wires and my bike is producing 13.7V of power to the meter (as the meter has a volt sensor inside).
I have included a video to show the issue and I wonder if there is anything I can do cause I tried all sorts including using resistors between speed sensor wire to speedo, resistor between power to speed sensor.
Any help would be great as I would really want this to work.
Thanks in advance!
