Help - Ford T9 Gearbox Speedo Drive
Help!!
I have Ford Type 9 Close Ratio Gearbox with an electronic speedo (Pulse output) drive. Does anyone know how this could be used to tap an output for a digital speedo? Failing this does anyone have an old broken gearbox with amechanical speedo drive in it that they could sell to allow me to use the orginal sierra clocks? I am not sure if it best just to exhange the tale or just the speedo drive. Real pound notes awaiting a good home. Any help appeciated.

Hi Nick
You might be able to remove the electric drive & fit one of these from Burton power Revotec adapter If one of these will fit, you can then use an Escort speedo cable wich has a screw fitting on one end & I am almost certain that the other end will plug into the standard Sierra speedo. Perhaps someone will confirm this .... If not get your local motor factor to try the fitment out

Hi Bonzo,
I had a look at this option, and after detailed investigation it appears that the adapter is for converting an existing mechanical drive to a electronic speedo output. So its kinda right but the wrong way round.

Longshot Nick,try your local taximeter fitter if you can find one as they use a pulse from the speedo to run the meter and work out how far they have travelled.

Spikehaus, isn't the electric pulse output exactly what's needed for digital speedos?

I have no idea? I can find no documentation for this online? A simple wiring diagram or numberr of pulse outputs would help!
