Speedo goes right to 160mph?

Post by HinckleyDSM »

Its a 05 type s with kpro. Once my rsx starts to roll the speedo goes right to 160mph? Any ideas on how to fix this problem? Have been told the vehicle speed sensor but I replaced that and it still does it. Please let me know.
Thanks
Steve

I just hooked the computer up to it and I got to that screen but it wont let me change anything. Its says something about the ecu being an older version or something and I have to re-calibrate it? any ideas?

Click on New Calibration and open the 05 RSX calibration and upload it to the ECU.

Make sure that whatever calibration you use you have the check next to countershaft driven speed sensor.

The car was tuned by the original owner so I dont have that calibration. So if I pick a different calibration will my tune be all messed up?

Your only option would be to try and download the calibration from the ECU by going to Online, Tools and download. This may or may not work, but it is the only way you will be able to get the calibration that is currently running. If you can download it then make sure you save it to your laptop.
