I installed a F900BT yesterday into my 2009 Scoin xB. To make a long story short, I did the hardware bypass and everything works fine, however, I didn't connect the VSS wire. This morning I opened the car back up and connected it to what I believe to be the correct wire.

Now, my question is this. How can I check to see if I attached it to the correct wire? When I drove around a little bit, the speed on the navi seemed more accurate than it had been yesterday, but is there any definitive proof?

Thanks for the help!

I didn't know mine was correct until I went 5 MPH over the speed limit and it told me "You are over the speed limit". Tell me if I am wrong but I just installed the unit yesterday "F900bt" there is a place in the nav that registers your speed. I saw it yesterday I thought but forgot how to get back to it. My VSS wire was a bitch to find out , different sources on the net saying different colors for the wire (for the same car) it was confusing but eventually found it.

Ya, under navi settings there is a global option that allows you to see the signal strength of the satellite feed and what speed your traveling at. However, that works off the actual satellites (I was getting a speed from it yesterday without the VSS).

I had the same problem finding my VSS wire (in fact, I don't even know if I have the correct wire yet).

cover the gps antenna with a small sheet of metal and see what it says for the speed
