Trooper's Compass/Altitude Cluster

[kimpOy]

Mga Gurus,
eto naman ang inaasam ko ngayon
A cluster of electronic multi-meter for a compass, altimeter, thermometer and barometer.

above the rearview mirror,

gurus garyq & Boknoy,

may link ka kayo on how the connection on this one, electronic kasi unlike sa pajero na patong lang ayos na.

[garyq]

Most probably 12V supply lang kailangan coz electronic nga. Best bet, U.S.>> sa mga recyclers. Dito may nakita ako dati sa isang 2002 or 3 yun na total loss. A friend owns the shop and they were selling the whole car. If ever I will let you know pero sa U.S dami yan.

sir kimpoy, may alam ba kayong mabibilan ng cluster na may temp at compass ng lets say...delica?ung pwede nang ipatong sa dash ko.

altimeter lang kasi meron ang safari, which i dont use pag nasa city.ung compass at temp, very useful sakin.but i dont like the electronic one...herherherh

pero magkano score mo jan ser?

SIr aside from the multi meter you will also need the external sensors in order to ake it function properly.

kimpOy, wala bang multimeter trooper mo? 4x4 na yan diba? bakit yung mga 4x2 meron?

nakalagay pala sa manual ng trooper na yung data ng altimeter is computed lang based on the readings of the barometer. pati ba yung altimeter ng ibang mga rides e ganyan din ang pagkuha ng data?

[kimpOy]

Sir Glennster, parang may nakita ako Cluster for Delica/Pajero/Strada dito sa kabilang hiway, kaso di ko sure kung nandun pa, check ko ulit tapos pm ko sa iyo.

hindi ko pa na i-score ito, na kodakan ko lang sa isang subic unit.

Sir UBS, thanks for the added info.

Sir Boybi, unfortunately walang multimeter ang trooper ko, umakyat kami sa bataan mountain ranges last sunday, hindi ko tuloy nalaman kung gaano na kami kataas.

[GlennSter]

salamat po ser!!

[hi_johnp]

mga bossing gumagana ba yung temp ng multimeter ng trooper nyo? sa akin kasi minsan 35 to 43 ang temp. sabi d2 sa davao isuzu ganon daw talaga yan. peude bang i adjust/ reset?

[OTEP]

The thermometer will only display the correct temperature at highway speeds.

Less than that, there is insufficient airflow to register a correct reading.

[boybi]

nakakabit kasi ang thermo sensor dun sa harapan ng car, kaya kapag naka idle or mabagal ang takbo, nakakaapekto sa reading yung heat coming from the engine kaya mataas ang reading.

[hi_johnp]

maraming salamat mga bossing

sir boybi, does that apply only to the trooper or most cars inaccurate yung temp. indicator pag idle?

[OTEP]

It applies to vehicles which have an outside temperature indicator (e.g. Pajero, Trooper, etc.).

However, our engine temperature indicators located on the gauge cluster are always accurate.

tama si OTEP. pero sa mga newer vehicles like our previa and the camry have a somewhat accurate reading. hindi na umaabot sa 40deg celcius yung outside temp maybe they have isolated the temp sensor so as not to pickup the engine heat.
