Back the needle as far as it goes. Just done turn to hard you will feel when the stepper motor stops turning then take picture and install in same location. Mine is close after driving by radar

That is the one that quit on me also. When you pull your needle off and put it back on the new motor just align it on (0) i found it helpfull to follow the youtube video. If it is not right just take it apart again and realign the needle i had to do that two times to get everything right.

if you have already removed the needle and replaced the stepper it isnt as easy, but if not you only need to rotate the needle CCW to the 0MPH spot and mark the needle possition. Then before putting on the new stepper, rotate the new motor all the way CCW then solder it in, and place the needle back on so it likes up with you mark. There are a couple Utube videos that you can search on that explain it pretty well.

They are difficult to calibrate. Your old one should still be correct so just twist the needle gently counterclockwise until it stops (by 0 MPH) and mark it with a pen on tape. Then match the new one up to your mark. There are good youtube videos on this. Just search "how to install stepper motors"

look it up on u tube it will show you look up replace stepper motors in dash

First you have mark the lowest location on the guages, by turning them down by hand then with a piece of tape mark the location with a pin, try to be as a curate as possible on your markings. Then you can begin your disassembly of your cluster. Reinstalling the needles, you must insert the needles at a 12 clock position and then turning them clock wise slowly and gently try and get the new guages back to your markings on the tape,and you are done and don't worry if you pass your marking just repeat the process until you obtain the proper location. I used the blue painters tape and the soldering kit that is offered with the step motors.hope this will help you out.

The best way before you remove the arms place a piece of scotch tape on the face behind the arms mark the position of the arms in the counter clockwise locations and then when you put the arms on the new motors rotate the arms to the counter clockwise until they stop like you did when you marked the old position. Then push the arms all the way on the motors. Remove the tape and put it all back together again. Don't forget to check if you have lights out too before you finish up. Hope this helps

OK. When you push the needle back on its' axle, place it so it is pointed straight up. When it is pressed onto the axle, then push the needle down toward the "zero" mph mark. It will be close, but may not be exactly accurate. You'll need to learn if your speed is showing fast or slow relative to the speedo needle (one way to check is to drive a steady 60 mph between two mile markers on the highway. It should take you exactly 60 seconds if your speedo is correct). The other alternative is to take the rebuilt cluster to a specialty shop and have them professionally calibrate it.

OBD Car Doctor Free works the bes, mine shows right up on my bluetooth though. So may be defective.

That unit has to be removed and sent to pacesetter. You're better off buying a new one, unless you can be without your car for however long it takes them to send you a new one, assuming, of course, they will warranty it. Better call pacesetter directly.

On my Volkswagen Jetta there were two sensors. One just after the catty and one on the exhaust manifold. the one with the long cable goes on the manifold. By the way, I recomend replacing the upstream first and see if this does the trick. Also get one of those cheap ODB blue tooth code readers and the free android or windows app called TORX. Understand and monitor the codes as you drive. One bad code is okay but two is not. I actually cleaned the caty by removing it and dumping acetone through it. Probably wont pass again and it was a lot of work.

Make sure you have it on the track correctly. If that doesn't do it I wish I could help you....mine actually stopped working all together and could not be returned. Haven't replaced it yet....not sure I'm going to either.

I believe DR. speedometer can make those repairs. Check his web sight. Also you can have your local GM dealer parts dept. contact there supplier. you will need the GM. part number off the back of the cluster.

Im on my second one,the first one worked like a charm,the second one not so well. Try taking the batteries back out,unhook both ends of cord,reinstall batteries then reconnect the cord and try to calibrate,if it does the same thing leave it and pull car out,wait to see if it stops flashing. If it does,then pull car in and see if it works properly. Mine acted weird then all of a sudden it started to work properly after a few days and has worked correctly ever since...hope this helps

That happened to mine as well. The wire that connects the speedometer (or "4 function on board computer" ) is probably wrapped around the spindle. You have to take the wheel and chain off, then you should see it on the right side. Maybe you can tape the extra wire to the tube to see if that keeps it from getting caught again. When I tried it, it happened a second time. I had to remove the plastic sensor (it doesn't spin like it should, which allows the wire to wrap around the spindle), so now I use it without that feature. It's a design flaw and I'm sure it's the reason they sell it so cheap. The rest of the bike is pretty good though.

It might be bad battery. I couldn't make speedometer work with included battery, but when I installed new Li-Ion battery in transmitter, it started to work right away! Schwinn included bad battery, that was it.

sorry, I cannot help you since mine is still working......how about contacting the dealership, did you try that?

I had trouble with the one I bought on Amazon. I bought one from an auto parts store....cost more but it worked.

The controllers are cheaply made. I had the same problem. Try pushing the accelerator side to side whil pulling back

I do not believe that this unit currently has ability to recalibrate the speedometer on Toyota Trucks. I understand that they are working on it for the Toyota trucks. Here is a link to the manual. http://www.bullydog.com/documents/40450_instructions.pdf Unfortunately, I was not able to locate it in the manual either.

I had the same error codes and after trying a horde of sensors from Autozone, nothing worked, moreover they were expensive. This was the one I used to get the CEL off and the car is running fine.

Check your cable with a friend a cordless drill. Turn the key on but don.t start the engine. Put the drill in reverse and have your friend watch the speedo. Attach to the cable only and not the gear in the tranny. If that don't work put the gear back on the cable and try again. I believe the gear in the cluster is just for the milage. Hope its not the speedomoter its self.

1) Make the magnet and the speed sensor are close enough together. If you pass the magnet by the sensor you should hear a faint click. and I think an led light blink on the sensor. If you don't either the magnet isn't close enough, the the battery in the speed sensor is dead, or the sensor unit is broken2) Make sure the unit is clicked in to the mount properly
