- I just wanted to show you the process for getting a simple sketch working with arduino together with an automotive stepper and XOD as a programming tool, special thanks to Matt Wayland for the nodes!
If you would like to see his connection write up the link is here www.hackster.i...
I feel like this is a great starting point for Car or Plane simulators as well as for gauges in an actual real life car!
Great video, im litteraly in the same process on a 54 Chevy truck. Thanks.
You mean using an arduino and such for speedometer? Thanks
@@RocardEnglishCharlie Weirdly, im in the process of doing my '50 Chevy truck lol.
Found a co-axial stepper motor, so im using the original speedo as a combined speed/rpm.
@fireflybuzzbuzz that's really cool. How is it progressing. Been so focused on the main project I have t had time for this element.
I’ve just come across this. Thank you sir. I am looking forward to giving it a go. I to can’t compute the code.
That's fantastic
Cool stuff Charlie 😁
Have you considered using a GPS module instead of a hall sender? As it would make for a much easier install.
I have done some testing with a GPS module. Really need to get back into this project! I may end up staying on the GPS route but also like the challenge of the hall effect sensor.
@@RocardEnglishCharlie Im just starting out on this journey and just researching at the moment, so its a steep learning curve to say the least!
What Engine & box are you fitting in the truck? A lot of the later overdrive autos have hall senders already fitted to them.
@@uncensored5104 it's a 350 small block chev with a th400 box. I bought a hall effect sensor from dakota digital. The plan is to connect it. Get a signal reading using a drill then calibrate it.
I'm considering using an arduino to control all the signal lighting too.
Tried the same exact thing and it never updates when value is changed. Everything else works.
Using xod you mean? Really need to get back to this element of the project!
Clever. May I ask what year and make the GM gauge cluster overlay is from?
I have absolutely no idea at all. Sorry!
Pretty slick, any update with the trans output speed sensor?
Not yet, I need to pick up on this project very soon.
You should use gps instead
I was just researching looking to do the same thing. Are you planning to have an odometer as well? I want that part to work too and not sure what to do to covert my old mechanical speedo to both this type of actuator which Ive already purchased a few to play with. I also want to somehow drive the odometer too.
I've kind of picked up on this. I haven't tested yet but I believe it'll be an add on nvram chip to store the number. I have a hall effect sensor specifically for my transmission. Also not tested. I would say a GPS module will be a lot easier to implement.
any updates?
Not yet, getting back to it soon!
