Description
The Speedhut 4-1/2″ EV AEM 160mph Speedometer Gauge (FAE45-S2-EV) is a specialized instrument designed to provide accurate speed readings for electric vehicles. This gauge seamlessly integrates with your EV’s existing CAN-Bus system, operating at a 500K baud rate, to directly receive speed data from the electronic control unit (ECU). This eliminates the complexity and potential inaccuracies of traditional speed sensors. Installation is straightforward, allowing for easy integration into your EV’s electrical system. For added functionality, optional turn signal and high beam indicators (activated by a 12 Volt signal) can be incorporated. This speedometer is a reliable tool for monitoring your electric vehicle’s speed performance with precision.
