    Default Digi Dash speed?

    Just fitted a digi dash in the nova, went for a spin and the speedo reads about double what it should be, ie when im doing 50mph its about 120mph. Any ideas? Could the signal wire be broken somewhere? cheers

    Try the red switch on the top of the dash - It has 2 settings

    Flick it the opposite way to what it is and it might solve your problem

    nope as at 50mph it'd read 80kph, unless he thinks he was doing 50 and was actually doing 75

    It'll either be the red switch or a dodgey transducer ?

    Your thinking the MPH/KPH switch, which is on the trip reset.
    Not the red switch as said, Red switch changes between the two transducers that astra's came with.

    No, it switches between mph and kph fine, they both read double what im actually doing. As there is two type of transducers, AK and AH, Ive got the AK transducer. So ill try the AH transducer.
