Speedometer Calibration - Toyota Tundra Forums : Tundra Solutions Forum

I have a '99 Taco with a 2.7l and 5-speed 4WD. Wonderful truck except the speedo is off by about 10%. Is there a fix for this or do I have to live with it. Were the speedo's electronic in '99 or still gear driven?

Thanks for the help.

Did you put larger tires on it or regear? If so, the Truspeed Calibrator will fix it for both of those mods. Install is super easy, but takes a little time with removing the gauge cluster and soldering the calibrator into the speed sensor wire. It's listed as being available for the 1992 - 2005 Tacoma, so it should be fine to install it.

Check out this thread on how the install went on a few 1st Gen Tundras. The principals are the same, but your wiring is going to be a bit different. Before you rip into it, shoot mustang67408 a PM or email with your truck specs (year, make, model) and he can probably give you the exact speed sensor wire you need to tap into.
