      What are you using to feed it?

      Off the top of my head - a saw tooth wave form should to the trick. That should approximate the diff's sensor well enough.

            Damn you guys should've called me. I was in ruston yesterday with the girlfriend and would've loved to swing by and check this out.

            Oh. And if you want my old airbag wheel I'd love to see you wire it up so that it goes off the first time someone hits a wall.

            Man that'd be hilarious. :D

              +1 it should just be a 5v square wave.

                Yeah I'm not sure what is going on with it. I feed it all the power it needs, and the tach does not read at all until I crank up the RPM's.

                            the tach signal comes from the VR sensor, not the diff ;)

                                you must have some electrical engineer in your system, to trace signals from buttons to make them do the same on the game..
                                oh and what games will it run?
