Hi All,
Seems it has been a long time since I contributed anything useful to the forum. Feel guilty as you guys have given so much of your knowledge. Kinda thinking it is time to give back a little.
Been using table switch for over a year in my 01. To my frustration the switch mounted in the console is easily bumped releasing the brake by others who drive it. Now when I switch dual tables on it also turns on the O/D light. Recently had a chance to pull the dash and while out look at indicator lights are unused. Chased wiring and turns out only a ground is needed to activate the light. To make this happen could not be simpler. Installed a wire from the dash plug to the MSPNP side of my switch. Since both the MS and the dash light need a ground it works great. The connector pins for the dash plug are empty for the spare lights so finding pins from scrap car side plug is all that is needed to make the mod cleanly. Anything in the MS or the car that activates with ground can also utilize an indicator. I regret that I did not take any pics of the dash while out. And I have seen where others modify the image in the dash itself.
Something else I found I like. Had trouble is hot summer days getting car to take fuel. The tank vent charcoal canister have a vacuum line to the intake controlled via a 12v solenoid. I ran that into a switch in the car. Totally manual but does allow me to pull pressure out of the tank as I pull into a station. It can kill the motor from the additional fuel draw when idling so a like to hit it decelerating.
My last thought that I have not implemented is to place another one is these in my cruise control line with the MS tuning it on only in vacuum. A canister and check valve may be all that is needed. However am interested to set it up with this valve as well as the check for CC. Annoying to have cruise drop of in the mountains.
