Thanks. First I will change my wheels to original ones by all because I don't like Camaro wheels on my 'Vette After this I will check the speedo error again and I will change the gears if necessary...

RACE ON!!!

Now if I throw the switch, it STAYS locked all the time except in first gear.
Which terminal letters did you jumper?
