## Questions & Answers

**Q: I just received this unit and it appears to have a coating of silicone all over it. Is this normal?**
A: My unit has a very light coat of sealer on it. Not sure it is silicon.  Not tacky.

**Q: Can this sensor be used as a direct input signal for a stereo system that requires a speed reference?**
A: No

**Q: what is the impulse range of this speed sensor I need 4000 to 103,000 ppm**
A: From the Manufacturer: Hall effect style sender, 16 pulse per revolution with pass-thru drive for cruise control. Adapts most GM and Chrysler transmissions with speedometer cable output. This sending unit is designed for use with Auto Meter speedometers, and will not work with OEM speedometers under any circumstances.  Additional info:Auto Meter electric speedometers are pre-calibrated. When converting from a cable driven speedometer further calibration may not be needed if:1. The transmission's speedometer cable take off is 1000 RPM at 60 MPH (97 km). Most vehicles meet this requirement.2. The vehicle is equipped with a 16-pulse/revolution sender.3. The speedometer that includes a 2-wire sender is pre-calibrated to 8 pulses/revolution to match this sender.  It did not work with an older VDO electric speedometer; I purchased an Auto Meter speedometer and it worked.

**Q: Will this sensor work with a 700r4 transmission with autometer 7005?**
A: as long as your trans has the speedometer gears it will work
