Default Speedo sensor

Hi,
can anyone tell me if the BMW speed sensor in the back of the diff works OK with the Marlin supplied speedo or do you need to fit another sensor on the propshaft?

thanks

We still need to wire up the speedo. I havn't had checked the settings on the inside of the speedo. But will let you know once we get that far. Maybe someone else has experience they can share.

Yes the BMW sensor does work with Marlin supplied speedo. It is a magnet type which on mine gave 9 pulses per revolution may be different depending on your donor model.
