CALIBRATION

Note: If using the Intellitronix GPS Sending Unit, (S9020 – not included) the speedometer does not need
to be calibrated.
The speedometer leaves the factory with a pre-set industry standard setting of 8,000 pulses per
mile. Chances are that you may not need to recalibrate your speedometer, unless you have
changed the original tire size or the rear end gear ratio.
Note: Do not attempt to recalibrate your speedometer until after it is working properly and you have deter-
mined that the speed is incorrect. The calibration procedure will NOT correct a faulty installation or improper
wiring. If you attempt to recalibrate your speedometer without making sure the speedometer is receiving
pulses from the sending unit, the speedometer will display 'Err' and default back to the factory settings.
To calibrate:
1. Locate a measured mile where you can safely start and stop your vehicle. By running
the vehicle over this measured distance, the speedometer will learn the number of pulses
outputted by the speedometer sensor during a specific measured distance. It will then use
this acquired data to calibrate itself for accurate reading. There is a small recall push-
button in the center of the panel used to calibrate and read all of the data stored in the
speedometer. After installing your speedometer according to the wiring instructions, when
the ignition is on it should immediately display the default screen of 0 MPH, if the vehicle is
not moving.
NOTE: You will then need to drive your vehicle to the predetermined measured mile. During this
trip, the speedometer should read something other than 0 MPH. If it does not change, return and
locate the problem before continuing. Otherwise, proceed with the calibration.
2. Stop at the beginning of the measured mile with your vehicle running and in odometer
mode (NOT trip mode), press and hold the push-button until the odometer displays 'HI-SP'.
On its own, the gauge will then cycle through the recorded performance in the following
order: '0 – 60', '1/4', 'ODO', and 'CAL'.
3. While 'CAL' is displayed, quickly tap the push-button once. This will put the speedometer
in Program Mode. If you did not tap while 'CAL' is displayed, the pulses per mile will be
displayed on the odometer and the display will go back to MPH mode. Otherwise, you will
now see 'CAL' displayed along with the number '0'. This indicates that the microprocessor
is now ready for calibration.
4. When you are ready, begin driving on the metered mile. You will notice that the reading
will start counting up. The odometer will begin to display the incoming pulse count. Drive
the vehicle through the measured mile (speed is not important, only the distance traveled).
5. At the end of the mile, stop and press the push-button again. The odometer will now dis-
play the new number of speedometer pulses that were registered over the distance. The
odometer will continue to display the pulse reading for a few seconds. Once it reverts to
the default mode, you have successfully calibrated your speedometer.
