Hi everyone,
I'm posting this on behalf of Elvis Nocita in Germany who some of you may know. Elvis is developing a new PCB for the interior lamp delay module (that white relay in your relay compartment which rarely works). The new design will dim the interior lights even if you have LEDs fitted. Here's Elvis' message:
"The white delay module can't work with the LEDs, it is simply impossible from the design they chose. But I also have something positive:
I am currently working on a new PCB for the white delay module that works with the LED's. All it does is delay the interior light between 5 and 10 seconds before it is dimmed down smoothly. I currently have around five orders from the German owners, but I could build more of them if you guys are interested.
At the moment I am still playing around with a prototype to make sure it works like I want it to.
What I want to sell is just the little PCB that goes into the original white module. Anybody who can hold a solder iron should be able to replace that. Also I need an extra wire to the connector as I need a +12V connection to make this thing work reliable - not like the original one!
Of course a simple and detailed description will come with it or is going to be online by then.
The price will be somewhere between 10 and 20 bucks plus shipping, depending on the price for the bare PCB. Again - they are not available yet, this may take another few weeks, but I need some motivation to do this work, five pieces ist not enough to get a useful price for the PCBs.
Interested? Then please send me an email at elvisnocita@gmx.de"
