Hi there,

First time I've posted for ages! I guess that mean's I've had no probs at all with my MY03 Cupra (remapped to 220bhp in Dec 2003)!

Well - until now that is! I have a minor problem which is that the LCD (computer and mileometer/odometer) backlights seem to go on and off intermittantly. I know they're illuminated by tiny LEDs soldered onto the PCB behind the pod but I have no idea what's going on. I think there may be a loose connection as the rest of my dash (Rev, Speed, Fuel, Temp and all the warning lights are OK!

Any ideas? I giess I might have to pull out the pod and have a look.

Cheers,

Derek.

Hi m8,

I'm sure I've done that before and nowt happened - maybe I whacked it in the wrong place! I'll give it another go...

I may try a hammer next if that doesn't work! :D

Cheers,

Derek.
