Title: Speedo Error
Post by: Dick Simonis on June 16, 2012, 02:43:30 PM

My speedo reads a bit high....perhaps 4 mph at 63 and wonder if there is any adjustments on it to correct errors.  This is Magnum unit.

Thanks.

Dick

My speedo and odometer are pretty much useless in terms of accuracy. The speedo isn't even consistantly wrong in being off by a certain number. The odometer shows about 1k miles more than the Silver Leaf. The Silver Leaf is in sync with GPS.

I feel a lot more comfortable with speed since I removed "torque" as one of the "drive" screen options and replaced it with "speed".

Our speedo and silverleaf are both reading 5-6 miles per hour fast according to our GPS and everyone else's speedo that we travel with.

I don't believe I've looked at the Silverleaf speed display, I've always just use the GPS.  When we pull out of Caldwell, I'll check it out.  If it's off the same amount as the speedo, than I would have to believe the error is in the sensor, if not than it'll be the speedo itself.  I thought I heard someone at the dealer mention dip switches but???
