No, ledDisplayNumerical() is a subroutine. You use it as a command in your main program (loop) as you would digitalRead(), analogWrite() and so forth.
When you execute a subroutine, the program...

Nope. This was my re-hash of the MPGuino.

Could be. I haven't looked at it in quite a while, but one of my complaints about MPGuino was that it's not compatible with the Arduino IDE. IIRC, the...

Yeah, I ran into that when I tried direct-driving an optoisolator with the VSS signal. The VSS really doesn't put out much current, so it's easy to drag down the signal so the ECU, speedo and cruise...

339, or 393? Though it's a pretty basic comparator circuit that should work with many op-amps, your diagram says 393.
10uF might be overkill for the decoupling cap on your input. Also, electrolytic...

Well for starters, the signal is supposed to be a square wave rather than a sine. ABS sensors tend to be simple coil-and-magnet setups that read a notched ring that spins with the axle. The VSSs that...
