ECM will need to be programmed to accept that signal. You'll need to know your tire size, rear gear, and speedo drive and driven gears for them to tune properly.

Actually, the Dakota digital will only read about 3 mph with a non-programmed ecu, but it will stull resolve the stalling issues. If you reprogram so that the ecu is reading speed accurately it works too, but will not provide a stable enough signal to run DBW cruise control.
