okay ... so I'm missing a connection on my 5-spd transmission ... according to the FSM its the "Top (4th) Position Switch" (see pic for better description) ... I need to know if this is what is causing my tachometer not to work, or what it does ... and do i need to run wires to it? ... uhmm sorry to be so vague i don't know how else to describe it ... I heard DeviousKA might be able to help ... any help is appreciated, for I am teh noob thanks!

*sorry this is for an 89 s13 240sx ... with a DOHC swapped in
Re: Need transmission Wiring Help ... (Burnsey)
anyone know what the top 4th position switch does ... cause i need to get this fixed
Re: Need transmission Wiring Help ... (Burnsey)
Either way you should really get that thing fixed. It shouldn't be that hard to replace unless the wire is cut, then you got some solder work. If you don't notice anything else acting funny then I would think that's your speedometer.

Re: (pr240sx)
i did a 5spd swap and only hooked up the speed snesor and reverse lights and my cruise control all works ...
Re: (pr240sx)
So if I disconnected the 4th top sensor that would get rid of my governor? Any drawbacks to doing that? I'm hooking up my transmission right now from my engine swap, might as well do it if that's only thing it does.pr240sx wrote:NONE of the transmission sensors read engine RPMS
Check your ECU/TACH wiring
The 4th and top (5th) is for the speed limiter and cruise control activation.Thanks for posting that pic, I was looking for that!
Who needs a governor at 120 anyways... pffft.. I go all the way... on the track of course

Auto ECU does NOT have speed governorzero_gripS13 wrote:i did a 5spd swap and only hooked up the speed snesor and reverse lights and my cruise control all works ...
Auto 240 are speed governed via the auto ecu not the engine ECU (to my best knowledge)
