You dont need to splice into cluster signal, way too much f**king around if u ask me. This is what i did with my greddy fatt. Remove kick panel in passengers side to reveal ecu, splice into vehicle speed sensor wire for rpm signal for the timer. Ive uploaded an image so you can see which pin it is to trace the wire. Good luck.

I have a similar problem but in reverse.

I need to run a wire from pin #53 to the back of the cluster as my computer is not getting a speed signal.

Dont spose anyone could point this out for me ?

Thanks

Have you opened the cluster and checked the speed sensor is actually in there and not broken? Someone posted a couple good threads ages back about it all, you could try a search on my name and on speed sensor to see if you can find the post.

The wiring loom usually isn't the problem here....

Found your thread and it sorta helped.

My problem is actually because of my old alarm.

The old one had a built in turbo timer and was hooked into the speed sensor wire at the back of the dash.

When i got the new alarm installed obviously this was left out, hence my problem.

So now i assume i just have to re connect this wire with the wire from the ecu.

So would i be right in assuming the wire coming from pin #53 on the ecu (the speed sensor wire) which is yellow / green,

would be the same yellow / green wire which connects to one of the pins in the back of the dash ?

Also if i were to say cut this wire at both ends and re connect them with a new wire would this be ok ?

Cheers.

    • Mixing things up - installed some leather recaros to match the leather seat covered rear seats. Interior looks pretty schmick now except for some slight wear on the steering wheel which I will monitor and address if it becomes worse or actually noticeable!

    • I'm normally copping my own abuse from neglecting my daily drivers. "Those suspension bushes will last a bit more", "Don't worry about the oil leak, just keep topping it up". The project cars I'm always doing things slowly on them as I'm wanting them to be done better, and neater, and nicer. Luckily I don't have to deal with 18 year old Matt's "Learning to wire" stuff in the project cars. And there's only one piece of wiring I'm displeased about in the Landcruiser, and it's about to be cut out... However, the box loads of parts that have been going through this place lately for the Landcruiser... Brake pads Brake Rotors Full handbrake overhaul Wheel Bearings Seals Swivel hubs Steering Boxes Half the suspension joints Shocks Air bags (Ones to go in the rear springs for towing) Water pump Timing kit Lower timing case Harmonic Balancer Radiator Lots of other little seals and shits Gas struts for the bonnet New power window switches And god knows what else I've forgotten... Ha ha ha I have my fingers crossed the pinion seals don't start leaking on the diffs, that the transfer case doesn't leak, and the gearbox input shaft doesn't leak, nor the rear main seal. As they're about the only seals I haven't replaced in the driveline! I'm seriously eyeing off buying new caliper rebuild kits front and rear brake calipers... I'll probably recheck all the valve clearances soon too, and hopefully, it should be all good and sweet to haul some long distance trips again!
    • Every time I pull my 3x gauges out of the console and see the crack-addict way that I did the wiring, and I just can't bring myself to tear it all apart and "make it nice", because it is currently working. In fact, the last time I was in there I probably made it worse.
