    Still have an O2 sensor installed? Mine does this but I'm led to believe because my speedo doesn't work it's the speedo sensor.

    Allthough when I got my extractors and exhaust work done they didn't install my O2 sensor and the engine light was coming on from around about then.

    AE86's don't use an electronic speed sensor - they have a mechanical sender on the gearbox which runs off the layshaft (?), which spins a sheathed cable, which goes straight to your speedo.

    At no point does it interact with the ECU.
    You can have any brew you want... as long as it's a Datsun / Corolla / What is that?

    I dunno this is what I was told, when I posted it up a while ago. I know they use a small plastic gear and a cable set-up. I just didn't know whether it was different due to GT dash, not ADM cluster. Has to be my o2 then.

    Edit: Just searched Club4ag, and there is definately a speed sensor. On my ecu/dash anyway. See bottom right corner. Sorry bout the size.
