Speedometer



Speedometer
The speedometer informs the driver of the current vehicle road speed. It has a Liquid Crystal Display (LCD) to show odometer, trip meter and, on automatic gearbox models, the selected gear. The speedometer will not show speeds of less than 1.5 mph (2.5 km/h).

There are three different market configurations:
- NAS and UK = mph as major figures km/h as minor figures.
- Canada = km/h as major figures mph as minor figures.
- ROW and Australia = km/h only.

The Self Levelling and Anti-Lock Brake System (SLABS) ECU provides the signal input for the road speed. The signal is at 8000 pulses per mile (1.6 kilometres).
