The MFD/TID display

[bjh345]

Trying to get my MFD to display revs/speed instead of just the date, and came across this site:

Documents a hell of a lot of MFD mods, thought it might be ueful to someone

well i dont have a corsa anymore.... but i am goin to the scrappers to get a MFD to have a play with
might even offer modified ones for a price.. who knows eh

good find bjh345 il let you know what i come up with

[matty101]

dude if u cud make sumit that did tht i deffinatly buy one off you!

[corsa-danny]

wee question what does MFD/TID stand for and what is it

[Jimi137]

i know mfd stands for multi-function display. not sure about the other one

[dmiller]

TID is Triple Information Display - Ie the time|date|temp display on the dash.

Does that make sense?

[corsa-danny]

kk ty i looked on google but it sands for so many things

[Octane2097]

well i got one from the scrappers to play with, have also orderd sum flashable chips off the net as well.
il av to wait till they come then i can have a tinker see what i can do
could do with a corsa for testing it tho!

[matty101]

u cud have used mine but im miles away

would this work if your car doesnt originally come with a rev counter though ??
because my dad could do the electrics in minutes

[Octane2097]

wiring should be there already so yea
the electrics arnt hard to do, its creating the PCB and controller for it

plus il have to wait for the components to arrive before i can do anything
but if ur dad cn make em in minutes, get him to make a few get em for sale on here. would make a fortune!

im sure i cn borrow one of my mates cars.

[manudave]

my dad could make the pcb lol...hes an electrical engineer he probably has all the parts up his shop
cheers mate...i think i might just end up getting that rev counter

[Octane2097]

tell him to make me one then il pay
would give me a good starting point so i cn make em myself

[manudave]

my dads going to be doing me 1 when he can...he has the pic chip programmer and everything:)

[matty101]

like i said, if someone can make me one i'd buy it.
