This clever unit displays the current gear selected on virtually any vehicle with an OBD-II compliant ECU.* A large LED window displays the gear number in your choice of color, while a row of 8 LEDs above provides sequential shift light with 6 selectable patterns. Compact housing measures 62mm tall x 50mm wide x 23mm thick (2.44" x 2" x 15/16").
Microprocessor control compares the RPM signal to the speed signal to calculate which gear is engaged. You don't have to do any math, even during setup! Programming the gears is as easy as driving at a constant speed (ANY speed) in each gear for just a few seconds. The new, more flexible programming menu lets you set the pulses per revolution and RPM levels numerically, or by the traditional Cartek half-RPM method (just run the engine at half the desired RPM and press the programming button). Either way, you set the beginning and top RPM and the Cartek Shift Light automatically calculates the steps in between.
This indicator is compatible with most OBD-II compliant ECUs.* When you plug the unit into your OBD port, it even automatically identifes the ECU protocol for you. Cars without OBD-II compliant ECUs should use the Cartek Club Version Gear Indicator (Part No. 1068-161) instead to get these signals from the ignition system and a speed sensor. Instructions included. The pushbutton for programming is right on the back of the unit, so you don't have to make any extra room on your dash for it.
