1 Replace cable assembly with PSI wire harness. Connect red wire to keyed power, black to battery ground, and blue to dash lights. The 2 conductor wire connects to the sender-generator.
2 Install sender-generator on the transmission speedometer drive. (A magnetic sensor may also be used with rotating metal pieces.)
3 Divide the number on the ratio adapter into 1000. (i.e. 1000 ÷ 1.0263 = 974.37). Now calculate Full Scale hertz by:
(974.37 x 2 x 80) / 3600 = 43.31 hz
4 Find switch numbers that are the closest to 43.31. Since 43.46 is the nearest, push down on switches 1, 2, 3, 7 & 9. (pictured below).

42.60 1,2,3,7,8,9 47.06 1,2,4,5,6,7
43.03 1,2,3,7,8
5 Set odometer and install head.
Note If inaccuracy is thought to exist, multiply the Fs hertz setting
by the odometer reading "over" a known distance driven.
i.e. (10. 8) / 10 x (43.31) / 1 = 46.77 which is the new setting
(close switches 1, 2, 4, 5, 6, 7 & 9)
OR
i.e. (10.1) / 11 x (43.31) / 1 = 39.77 which is the new setting
(close switches 1, 2, 3, 6, 7 & 8)
