Cut a long story short, during the three drives after the chassis rebuild the speedo was intermittent.

Had a closer look at the connections and the three pin plug either side close to the gearbox was rotten.

Has I had no more of these connections I simply cut off the plugs and connected the wiring using a plastic box connector, sorry don't know what the technical term is!!

Kept the wiring the same Yellow to grey brown to brown and black to black. I have power through the black wire into the transducer but now I cannot get any speed reading and the miles counter has also stopped working.

Am I missing something obvious or do I need to do something else?

I have tried to find a replacement transducer and at the mo been quoted 150.00 for a second hand unit.

All help greatly appreciated.

Try this. I used one of the Transit senders referred to in the thread and it worked for me.

Many thanks,

The thread was very useful.

I have a new Transducer on route from Neil at MiPerformance cars at far less the price of the second hand one.

Does anyone know what MiPerformace is ? I searched on Google and didn't find anything relevant.
Any help appreciated.

The was my problem, your "L" is written as an "i", so it's actually ML Performance.
