If it is of any help... Bentley E36 manual says Speedometer "A" signal (DME 3.3.1 only): Check wiring between Instrument cluster and DME module.

Pin 73 of the DME is Vehicle speed signal and this goes to pin 10 of C2 on the instrument cluster.
Now: '98 E36 318is coupe Past: '97 E36 318is sedan; '91 E36 325i sedan; '94 E36 318is; '90 E30 318is; '95 E36 M3; '90 E30 318is
