Mines gone bang
and has only 4th available,
mechanic we use says the last time he saw this result on a Daihatsu,
it was a replacement, as a repair was not fiancially viable.
Looking around ebay, there appear to be some immediate differences
(speedo connection being either mechanical or electronic)
but comparing my knackered one side by side with One I found initially,
he further noticed a number of electrical switches missing,
and no plugged holes in the casing where they might be added.
He suggested One might might have been a connection to the ECU device to tell it what gear was selected to prevent damage at high revs?
I offered the speed alarm as another possible outlet
but what else might I watch out for on (slightly) earlier donor cars.
I'm not expecting a perfect match, I can even do without the speedo if neccesary, but I must be able to get 4WD (with or without indicator)
for towing on grass
