David, I have seen your instructions on how to build this "light box" in the past, I don't understand what this is about. You can easily tell what your transmission is doing since there is only 3 gears. I can tell what gear I am in, does the light box tell you something else besides what gear you are in? I think I am having trouble understanding what it is for. What I think you be useful is a manual override where you can push a button and choose your gear and override the computer... now that would be useful! - VB >From: "David Teitelbaum" <jtrealty@xxxxxxxxxxx> >Reply-To: dmcnews@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx >To: dmcnews@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx >Subject: [DML] Re: ERRATIC AUTO TRANS >Date: Tue, 25 Jan 2005 05:06:18 -0000 > >Build a light box so you can see what the computer is actually doing. >Once you can verify the problem is the computer you can fix or replace >it.
