installing apexi rev meter

What color wire do I tap into to measure speed on the ECU? Any help would be appreciated, thanks.

they don't have 2001 civic's listed in their instruction manual. I've got everything hooked up but except for the speed wire.

PM Boosted. I believe he has an S-AFC installed which would require knowing the same ECU wires.

If not buy a Helms for your car.

look in a service manual for our cars and look for the componet locator. look up the VSS ( vehicle speed sensor) and find out where it connects to the ecu. i'm not sure where the sensor is on our cars but usually on the transmission or possibly on the back of the rear brake drum.

I just found out the wire that mesures the speed is a white/green wire. I saw it when boosted posted pics from his service manual. Now I just have to put in the info.
