Tip for bad contacts/LCD flicker solution
undefined
Hi all;
Just a fabulous tip I discovered by sheer accident; my LCD dash and voltmeter now work without flicker because of it!!!
I sprayed throttle body cleaner (Cause I had no çontact cleaner' at the time) into my fuse holders (With fuses out), THEN got the air compressor out and blew the blade holders out with compressed air, and returned fuses (After wiping them) to their home;
PRESTO!!! A REAL added bonus given that my LCD speedo was flickering and here was me thinking oh dear, have to run a separate earth blah blah...
Seems there was a buildup (BIGTIME) of gunk and past water repellant spray etc, that was obviously acting as a partial insulator!!
Hope this helps others!
Cheers!
