speedo failure

hymey, good find mate... post the diagram when you get a chance to see it.

I'm wondering why a 10A fuse was installed (did it come from Holden that way even tho the socket for it is marked 30A...?).

Hey Joe,

Went through my owners manual and the fuse does not appear on the diagram, But it appears on the diagram of the fuse box lid. It does infact require a green 30 amp fuse and not a red 10amp like it had installed from factory. I am guessing it blown after the flash from a power minor surge or something, to much for the 10amp fuse. Something so little creates frustration but I am glad the e38 is OK, Turns out its been flashed a lot and haven't killed this one yet. I will take a pic of the lid and post it here later.

cheers

Joel

Starting to think there may be a pom in holdens wiring design team,Had a adventra cross8 the other week, no level ride, got a wiring diagram from holden after much grovelling(they wont share) the damn thing is wired to the interior light!!!! What the? Also thenks for the maloo tune hymey it was the wrong os (2007 vs 2008) but i only wanted to check a torque managment number. Maybe we need to start a wiring diagram archive???
Least you got it sorted.

Holden and GM diagrams/manuals/parts lists/diags have many, many errors.
