This is the calibration guidance that CAERBONT sent me for the new Speedo they recommend. Its attached below Guide on Programming new Speedometer PIL042-E.pdf

yes it is located at the back of the gearbox on the right hand side when looking to the front of the car

Hi Jonathan, To answer your question, It is the calibration of a new speedo I am trying to sort out, nothing else.

Yes I have with what looks like a heavy metal cylinder about 30mm in length with wires attached. Ok, so that is where mechanical motion is converted into electrical. From a distance, that does not look easy to get at and not something easy to take apart to check magnet?

Hi, I have a 2003 Caterham with 1800 K series and a 5 speed type 9 Ford box. My speedo is vintage 2002 and not programmable. Now on 13” rims my speedo speed can be well under my satnav speed. I have been in contact with Caerbont Automotive and identified a replacement. The calibration instructions I have been given are: On a prop shaft: - Calibration number = (wheel revs per mile/Km) x (diff ratio) x (number of magnets or bolts). I have a cable drive off the gearbox but at some stage this mechanical measurement gets converted into an electric signal. This is fed into the speedo via an 8 pin plug. I am ok with the first two parts but when is states – ‘number of magnets or bolts’ what does it mean and where would I look? Cheers Mike

Thanks Kingsley

Thanks SM25T

Hi, I have had a STARCOM set up for years. I am now having Bluetooth connection problems to my TOMTOM satnav (has always been tempremental) I have emailed them twice (a week apart) - no reply. I have just phoned them and been redirected to an answer phone for AUTOCOM. I have looked up AUTOCOM and note their phone number and address is the same as STARCOM. Does anyone know if STARCOM and/or AUTOCOM ceased trading? Thanks Mike

I have purchased one off eBay - thanks

Thanks but that does not sound like it is off the shelf - can I get back to you?

The add should have had the word 'wanted' in it

Wanted for fitting to 1800 K Series
