    Thrasher chip and Coolant Temp reading

    I just installed turbometerpro and for now just used it while the GN was parked in the garage to see if it worked while the key was turned to "on".

    Digital dash question...

    I drove the GN for the first time in 4 months. Started on the first crank! Anyways, I could hear a clicking noise at very low speeds, none at a stop or cruizing. Sounds like it is coming from inside dash. Just wondering if the digital dash has some kind of speedometer cable that could be...
