Speedometer programming
Thanks, Leroy, those are as good as any to try for starters. I'll be able to
test on Wednesday.

For those who said "check with the manufacturer of the speedometer," who made
it? Only markings on the back are Blue Bird.

I called BB rather late today (but before they close), and as in all previous
calls got Jessie's voice mail and no call back. Will be interesting to see if I
ever do.

Don:
My experience with BB has been very good. Let me know if you get a call. I
usually get one late afternoon or the next day.
I'll call them also, not that I'm anybody, but the squeaky wheel get the grease
sometimes. It's called piling on. lol

Just had a callback from Jessie, and he says yours is the factory default; no
other info available. I will report if that does the job.

Speedometer programming
A followup on the speedometer: Mine was set for "10" (2+8), and the factory
called for 26 - switches 2,3 and 6 which are 2+4+20. I set that, and it still
read substantially high. I set 40 (switch 7 only) and the speedometer was about
20% low. Set 34 (switches 3, 5, 6, which is 4+10+20), and I was 5% low, then 32
(switches 2, 5, 6) and I was essentially dead on.

This was done over a trip of 150 miles today, and during it I also set my
digital VMSpc speedometer to dead on - it was 1.8% fast over 10 miles of flat
desert at exactly 60mph. I now have two accurate speedometers, analog and
digital.

From this I conclude that the dip switches are additive, as shown above, and the
higher the combined number the more they take off the speed.

In the various invoices I have with this coach are two for transmission ECU
replacements, with the symptom being initially a lack of any speedometer reading
at all, and the second a couple of days later when the "new" replacement failed
completely. The shop which replaced both (second under warranty, of course)
noted that they could not get a second identical one either new or reman, so
used a reman "+2" unit.

I don't know what that means, but I assume it is somehow different, and probably
doesn't put out the same speed data as the original, which is why factory
programming didn't work.

I'm happy you found the answer. On your next ride I would appreciate knowing
the high and low engine water temperature cycle values from the VMSpc. And if
it is not to much trouble, run it for 5 miles with the fan override on and pass
along the constant low water temperature. Both over flat land for comparative
purposes. Thanks.

Speedometer programming
My cycle, when climbing hills (the only time it really cycled) was 197 on, 189
off. I suspect that could be 195/190 and is just overshoot, but it was
consistent. On flats, it dropped as low as 181.

I think it is possible that the fan override does not work - I saw no effect,
and it did not cause an increase in engine utilization, while the cycling
appeared to increase usage.

Of the PIDs I reported before, only trip mileage and trip fuel failed to work.
Trip miles were zero, and trip fuel was identical to total fuel. Total fuel was
over 7000 gallons, and corresponds to the 825 or so hours showing - about right
from when the records indicate the ECU was changed. Average MPG was an
unchanging 5.2MPG, presumably from that total 7000 gallons, while instantaneous
MPG ranged from a low of 1.1MPG when I accelerated uphill out of a rest stop, to
the max possible of 256MPG when rolling down hill with no throttle. Enough
variation on the level that it woud be hard to find the "sweet spot."

Don, That is a good point because the Trans shift points may have
been off the BB engineered intentions due to the 20% error in the
speed factor. Thank you for the followup

Speedometer programming
Interesting. I would expect cycle temperatures in that range because the sensor
has an 8-10 degree range. I would anticipate 181 on flat land only with the
fan override on in winter unless it was very cold. What was the approximate OAT?
You can check the fan override by starting the engine at which time the fan
should be spinning about 400 RPM. Turn the fan override on and it should spool
up to about 1800 RPM. It should do the same if the chassis a/c switch is turned
on. (pilot or co-pilot)
As I remember your a/c condenser is on the radiator, not on the roof.

Speedometer programming
Was probably in the 70s today. I did have the A/C on some, and that may explain
both why I didn't see a switch effect, and the 181 on flat. Didn't realize the
A/C would force the fan on. My condenser is not on the roof, and I assume it is
back on the main radiator but haven't looked for it.
