    Should be possible to get it functioning again. I believe there is a wiring difference between AT and MT and a clutch switch is needed.

     

     

     

    Had an issue with the speedometer. The former M56 had a speed sensor, the M66 not. Applied the VSS mod by rerouting the the speed sensor wires to the driver side ABS sensor. Thought I had done a neat job only to discover that it didn't work. Once the car started rolling the engine died.

    With the new engine an M4.4 ECU was used with modified software for this setup to get going. Swapped the ECU for an M4.3 containing OEM T-5R software and everything worked like it should. Tried several other ECU's including M4.4's and all worked well except the one which initially was in the car. Received another M4.4 ECU today with the same modified software and all it working OK now.

     

    Have driven some 30-40 miles with the car so far with and without the speedometer working and want to put some more miles on it first before making more modifications. Most of the goals have been met for the time being. Some minor fixes and improvement still need to be done but basically the setup is OK for now.
