Hi Keith
Not familiar with the GDI but would hazard a guess that the non-Ford MBE ECU doesn’t control the speedo over any of the OBD2 CAN protocols and perhaps the speedo grabs its pulses directly from the sensor on the front wheel hub?

Awaiting to be shot down..... smile


So forgive my ignorance, but are we saying that there is no OBD pinout that can link with the display? That is, it's impossible to get this display that I have to talk to the car?

Yes I think so.… But I did say I was guessing re the GDI and it would be good if somebody has managed to accesse the vehicle speed data.

I too wanted to rig up a digital speed display with the Duratec +4. It uses a Ford EEC-V ECU that uses J1850 on OBD pins 2 & 10. The vehicle speed data did not appear to be available or accessible.

Good luck with yours.
