I am having an issue with my D2 in a 2002 Honda CR-V. When I am stopped at a traffic light the D2 seems to think that I am still moving....probably due to the VSS wire (connected to the tach). Eventually the GPS in the D2 corrects the position, but that could be blocks away. Is there any way to correct this issue?

:lol: Why is the VSS wire hooked up to the tach? Then it thinks you're moving as long as the engine is running!

The solution is to connect the VSS wire to the car's VSS. At the very least, it would be better to have the VSS wire connected to nothing at all than the tach.

Go to main menu, Settings , then Hardware Info , Connection Status. Speed Pulse should read zero when you are stopped. If not I would think that maybe VSS is hooked to the wrong wire.

Well, that makes sense. I actually had a guy from Honda tell me which wire to connect the VSS to. Any idea which wire I need to use for a 2002 Honda CR-V?

It's in the cruise control module harness to the left of the steering column, blue with a white stripe.
