Hi Mates,

I have been working on the completion of my G13 to G16 swap using the Baleno harness and ECU.

The swap was successful and the engine runs perfectly, however I cant get the tachometer nor the ODO to work using the 99 Jimny instrument cluster.

The digital display section on the Speedometer witch has the milage is not working, its blank, I have not been able to drive the Jimny as yet to see if the speedometer itself is registering speed.

I have been reading the variable speed sensor, VSS does not work with the Sierra swap but I see no mention about the Jimny, would anyone know if this is the case with the Jimny?

Is the tachometer input signal and VSS signal for the 99 Jimny different from that of the 2000 Baleno? I am getting a tach signal right up to the tach but
the tach is not working.

Both the speedometer and tachometer was working perfectly well until I did the sawp.

Thanks Mates.

I will post pics in a build thread when I have everything working and sorted out.

The g16 jimny swap ive done retained the g13 wiring and ecu.
Had to swap the camshaft with the g13 as the teeth on the rear of the camshaft are different to the g16.
Try swapping the baleno tacho cluster with the jimny one or alternatively just match the brown wires up from jimny to baleno harness. If u have a look on your ecu pinout the brown will be tach signal from memory.

Hi Rocky,
Mechanically wise, everything went OK for the swap and the engine runs fine. I rebuilt the engine completely with all Suzuki parts.

The cluster is getting the RPM pulse signal from the coil pack. I might try swapping the Baleno Tachometer into the Jimny cluster to see what happens.

I think I have aeen a post here where a guy spliced in a Baleno loom/harness like we did, but did not say which cluster he used.
Thanks for the reply.

Got it all sorted, as suspected the cluster was missing a ground, everything works now.
