Has anyone ever done this successfully? Four Winns parts sent me what they said was the replacement paddlewheel sensor. Doesn't work, Four Winns won't help. Great boat..crappy service support for older boats.

VDO can't help and no longer support the all-in-one dashboard for those years.

Any new insights appreciated. Thank you!

There are a few options but one is to add a good depthfinder/gps and just use the GPS speed
the other is to get rid of the all in one gauges and put in a conventional gauge panel, then you can use a water pressure speedo or a GPS speedo whatever you want. I fixed my old water pressue speedo (just replaced the pick up on transom and over about 10 mph it reads pretty close to the GPS speed on my Garmin.
If I was going to keep the boat a while I'd probably upgrade the gauge panel to a conventional one where you have individual gauges.
