Checked my bulbs with fly leads off the battery, and there duds, not cheap at 6 quid a piece. Does any1 know wat type or ratin the centre bulb is as mine was missin wen i got the dash. cheers

[Dave.]

you dont need the center bulb matey, they originally only came with 2 main bulbs anyway, waste of money otherwise and makes no difference

this is why a dash should never part with its transducer, there are many types of transducers out there, and its sometimes impossible to tell what one you need.

im looking at doing this to my corsa but i was wondaring how do you get round the little problem of the mile counter being different?

you need a corsa spedo obviously and all you need to do it cut down the plastic spindle inside the bit that goes into the gearbox because mine works and thats all i had to do.

Got new bulbs in the dash, everything workin mint. cheers once again for the info m8

My transducer has 3 wires
1 brown
1 black/blue
1 red/orange
which wire connects to the blue/red on astra plug & where does the other wire connect?

[big dee]

i have the dash all wired up and ready to go though the lights are very dim how do i fix this?

rev the car to about 3000rpm then it'll stay bright until the next time you turn it off. You'll notice the voltmeter go from 12v to roughly 14v too. And the rest of the car electrics will work better, i.e brighter lights, faster elec windows...

Edit: Im yet to find a proper fix, although im getting a higher output alternator later in the week, i'll let you know if this solves it.

Your nova isnt a 1.2spi is it?
