Just got a 2005 Vue and am having an Eclipse AVN2454Navigation system professionally installed but the installer is having problems with the VSS (speed pulse). Apparently, according to Saturn tech's, there is no way to splice into the VSS. We have tried a magnetic disc VSS which fits onto the CV shaft but it does not put out enough volts for this unit (is 1V, should be 5V). The unit works without a VSS connection but there is no voice guidance or rerouting when you go off route.


Anyone have similar problem and corrected it, or have a different make of NAV/DVD that works without VSS connection.


PLEASE HELP!!!

there is no seperate sensor that you can install?

Yes, there is one other one that I know of, but it is a rod that fits inside the wheel-well and you have to magnetize the steel belts in the tire that sits under it. Everytime you rotate or change the tire, you must re-magnetize the steel belts. It is not worth the trouble. I just spoke to a Pioneer representative, and he told me that the N-2 Nav system that they sell works just fine without the VSS hooked up. That is what I am going to do, take out the Eclipse and install the Pioneer N-2.

ok...good luck with that! let us know how it works out!
