Ray Allen LED elevator position indicator

Postby Badger » Thu Jun 12, 2008 10:08 am

Gents.
I want to install a Ray Allen led position indicator in my Savannah. It already arrived from ther States. I had one look at the "recipe" in the box and decided that I am electronically challenged (**) and need some help to do the installation. The elevator servo is a ray allen elevator servo. Would some one in the Pretoria area be able to give me a hand with this or perhaps refer me to an expert that would be able to install it for me.

Badger, I put one in my Savannah.

I used a 9Pin connector in line with the cables. What will help is the wire colours from the servo to the indicator (hope the colours are the same)

If you dont win give me a shout

Cheers ian

Thank you Fanie (P.M) and Ian. I am in Charles De Gaul, Paris waiting to board my flight back home and will have a look on Saturday morning ( if I can get up that early) to see what the wires look like on the servo. Ian, where did you buy the nine pin adaptor?

9 Pin connector Std computer connector with decent covers, you can use any connector..... Maybe something more aligned to automotive like Molex ?

Cheers
