That's nice to know.

Correct. The power light is on because the TCU is in power mode. The Econ light is on because it's wired directly to the switch.

I still have not solved the speed signal conundrum. I am still stuck in 1 range, and no speed showing on the speedo.
I don't recall the exact details of your problem. Will have to search for it.

I was thinking the other day that it might be possible to use a pair of headphones to check for the presence or absence of the speed sensor signal. The frequency of the signal should be in the audible range. It would produce a low tone which would become higher pitched as speed increases. But I wouldn't recommend trying it without running it past an electronics guru first. Maybe Trevor can advise.
