Today was unexpectedly dry down on the south coast so I was able to do a road test.
All the instruments and dash mods worked... except for the change-up lights.
I spent an hour writing an email to the company (SPA Design), including asking them if there was anything I could do in the settings menu, such as select 'remote shift on/off'.
Then I went out again and at some point, noticed that the (hardware) switch I'd added (bottom right of the cluster)... painted matt black and obscured behind my right hand - was in the off position. I switched the remote lights on, and they worked. I can be pretty daft sometimes ! Switch was so discrete it was almost invisible, haha, so I wrote another somewhat apologetic letter asking them to trash the previous one, hoping they won't be wasting any time dealing with a non-existent problem.
During the test I also noticed that it would have been better to have put the tacho on the left and the speedo on the right.
How I got that wrong, is beyond daft but I had assumed the steering wheel would be bang in the centre when actually it's offset to the left !
If I swap the dials round then I will be able to see all of the tacho, and all of the speedo up to 100mph, all the time.
Looks like I will have to take the whole thing apart one more time. Oh well, that's the way it is.
Grrr.
