Hi guys,

Is there a way to check that the VSS cable is attached properly thru the head unit?

Thanks

Go to the vehicle dynamics menu from the nav. If its not working, the MPH gauge should say "not accessible". at least, thats what mine says right now

No, the MPH gauge will work once it gets a good GPS Signal.

To see VSS status, go to settings, then hardware info, then 3D status. If it shows a number for the speed pulse, it's working.

i checked mine and no pulse but the speed is accurate. Would you recommend me to back to installer and ask to connect the vss to it?

does the speed pulse need to match my actual speed? my speed pulse is usually about half of what my actual speed is.

no, the speed pulse will vary from car to car. its not going to match your speed. the speedometer is accurate through voltage sensing even without the vss hooked up.

accorading to the manual, i have the correct wire for the vss......but my speed pulse reads 0 when driving. did i need to reset the unit after tapping into the vss wire?

The manual told you what wire to hook it up to in your car?? Damn I must have got some bootleg one then.

sorry. i didnt mean the d3 manual. the manual i got from here....with all the vehicle wire diagrams.

Yea that would be sweet tho, if they gave you all the wire colors with our avics
