Indicators flashing dash light

Post by RussLCV »

its me again with my electric woes.....

A couple of issues but lets start with the easy one!

What colour wire illuminates the green light on the indicator stalk, reason I ask I have a Mini stalk installed and as I have a 140kph speedo with a green light that is spare I want to flash that light............... do I just divert the correct wire to the light or do I need to do anything else?

Thanks

You need to trace the LIGHT green from the flasher unit.

Yes but the primary one is kph, the one you can hardly see is the token mph scale!

Yes he did. Just wondered why a kph one was chosen. I'd find it misleading as your eyes are prone to view the larger numerals rather than the small inner mph ones. :D On the uk type the larger numerals are mph.

Could you please tell me the serial number (SNxxxx/yy) off the face of the speedo followed by the 4 fig TPM, for my speedo application chart.
Do you know if the speedo you have fitted is going to give you a correct reading?

Because when you are doing 60 your speedo will read 100, unless you have a magnifying glass to read the inner scale! :D :D
However, nice looking speedo!
