Hello to all, this is my first post :grin:

I have a problem with 440 turbo speedometer. Sometimes when i drive, it works fine, with no problem at all, but after a while, it dies. When i bought it, the rev meter had the same problem, i bought other gauge. now the rev meter works ok, but speedo still has problems, same than before.

can anyone pls help me. The engine is the same that in 460 turbo.

tnx from new user, from Slovenia

COuld be the ECU connector, if you have a water leak into the footwell, then the water can build up in the connector and corrode the terminals, I ended up having to replace the whole connector, and then I put the ECU inside a plastic bag with the opening facing down, I never had a minutes trouble since.

the ECU is behind the side panel in the footwell, on the right hand side of the car facing forward, it has a single 30 odd pin connector.
