The down low on how to install a VSS into a Samurai speedo cluster

The fuel injected motors use a reed switch in the speedometer to send pulses to the ECU. I know people who didn't bother to put this in the Samurai speedometer and the only downside seems to be worse fuel economy. You can send off your Samurai speedometer to get the switch installed for $50 + shipping from ZOR or other Suzuki vendors, or you can try the install yourself. The first picture is the Tracker speedometer removed from the housing, the reed switch (or VSS) is shown in the picture to the right (I forgot to get a picture of it before I took it apart). The important thing to look at is the two holes where you removed screw to get the VSS out.

Carefully disassemble your Samurai speedometer and lo and behold it has the same two holes in it! Take a small drill bit (smaller that the two bolts that held the VSS in the Tracker speedo) and drill the holes thru. Next run the screws in to make some threads. The second picture shows the VSS installed in the Samurai speedo. You'll need to connect two wires to the switch, the yellow wire goes to the tracker ECU, black to ground. I routed these out of the speedo via the holes for the check engine reset switch wires
