26pin Digitial Speedometer Pinout

Hi everyone,

As you all know, Coffee (Dean) passed away a couple of years ago. I am Dean's ex-wife's husband and happen to have spent my career in tech. Over the years, I occasionally helped Dean with various tech issues.

When he passed, I worked with his kids to gather the necessary credentials to keep this site running. Since then (and for however long they worked with Coffee), Woodschick and Dirtdame have been maintaining the site and covering the costs. Without their hard work and financial support, CafeHusky would have been lost.

Over the past couple of weeks, I’ve been working to migrate the site to a free cloud compute instance so that Woodschick and Dirtdame no longer have to fund it. At the same time, I’ve updated the site to a current version of XenForo (the discussion software it runs on). The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.

Unfortunately, the new software version doesn’t support importing the old site’s styles, so for now, you’ll see the XenForo default style. This may change over time.

Coffee didn’t document the work he did on the site, so I’ve been digging through the old setup to understand how everything was running. There may still be things I’ve missed. One known issue is that email functionality is not yet working on the new site, but I hope to resolve this over time.

Thanks for your patience and support!

I have come to some conclusions on the pinout of the 26pin speedometer/digital dash connector.

Pin 14 White/Yellow is the Low Fuel Signal
Pin 19 Skyblue is likely indication for turn signal
Pin 26 & 2 I think are ground aka -12v

Can anyone confirm these and help me out with +12v switched and unswitched power, high beam indication, and neutral gear indicator?

I am scared to go probing around with my Fluke DMM doing trial and error experiments.
