Insignia Q
« on: 23 January 2014, 17:13:05 »
Does the Insignia have an analogue speed signal?

If so where might it be located?

TIA, Al :y

A touch ambiguous :-\

If I pop the cluster out, which wire do I tap into?

I wouldn't mind guessing there is only CAN on the connector. Obviously at some point in the speedo, that gets converted.

That has been suggested to be the case :-\ needed to drive a taxi meter, if I need to buy a box, so be it, hoping to avoid if at all possible :y

Did it change on later ones? As the half-CANs would have analogue for the HUs, for SDVC. Later Vecs had the full CAN HUs, so that analogue wouldn't be required.

All 4 Vec Cs I've dealt with have had one, 3x '55 facelifts and one '58... :y

Have been advised a box is needed, but would prefer to fit the wiring myself...( Not that I'm precious about my cars or anything :D). ..if at all possible :-\

It wouldn't. :(

Can't think what a late vec-c would need analogue speed for, unless its a hangover from the half-can days

VIN :-\

The Vecs were two Design models, one Exclusive and one Life... So no consistent reason I can think of either ;D

The wiring diags are generic, not filtered for a specific config/spec.  Not that I currently have access to Insignia Schems, as I'm, as usual, laying in the bath...
