Re: Dashboard PCB Replacement (CJH Design)

Yes, I think I have the schematic. Where should the oil pressure light connect up to?

Re: Dashboard PCB Replacement (CJH Design)

I ran another test this evening. I checked all my wiring and reattached resistor R3 and ran it without the DOPS cables, incase that was the issue. Wiring looks spot on, but I still have no oil light on the dash? I've reached out to the people who designed it for me to see if they know what's going o...

Re: Speedo Cable Broke (For the second time!)

Thanks Aidan, I will try and sort this out now. They must have changed their rules recently.

Re: Dashboard PCB Replacement (CJH Design)

Did a quick test this morning. Van starts and all LED's are working apart from the Oil Pressure light. Oil pressure light does not even flicker on and off when ignition is on. Will need to check my wiring. I'm not getting any voltage from the alternator either, so need to check my wires on that one ...

Re: Dashboard PCB Replacement (CJH Design)

Is that last picture not working? I uploaded it the same way as I usually do. Honestly, I haven't given a lot of thought to selling these kits (my better half has though when she found out how much I spent 😂). I'm still learning about PCB's and I still want to develop the design more. If I had a bit...

Speedo Cable Broke (For the second time!)

I've ordered 2 replacement GEMO speedo cables recently, and both have snapped where it connects to the back of the speedometer. 1st one lasted 3 weeks, 2nd one only lasted a week! https://i.postimg.cc/76hnYRjm/IMG-20250912-154707.jpg https://i.postimg.cc/D0bQ1XvG/IMG-20250912-154726.jpg I've made su...

Re: Dashboard PCB Replacement (CJH Design)

Ok, I think it's finished. I've double checked the DOPS connections using the old ribbon PCB and I'm confident I have them in the correct order. Jumper caps arrived today and I think I have all the necessary one's installed. I've left the LED 6 jumpers vacant. There are a few things that need addres...

Re: Dashboard PCB Replacement (CJH Design)

Right, I got some wiring done this evening. I had most of the right colours, but brickwerks were short 3 of them so I had to improvise. I had to order some jumper caps too, as the PCB's didn't come with them. They should be here tomorrow though and hopefully I'll be able to test this over the weeken...

Re: Dashboard PCB Replacement (CJH Design)

I made a bit more progress this evening. I soldered in a green LED for the for the indicator and replaced the High Beam LED so it's the correct height. I left LED 6 where it was as I'm not sure I'll use it anytime soon? I removed resistor R3 as this could interfere with the DOPS system on my Dash. I...

Re: Dashboard PCB Replacement (CJH Design)

Well something finally arrived this morning. https://i.ibb.co/JRK6wbhK/IMG-20250910-104957.jpg https://i.ibb.co/35hMknYk/IMG-20250910-105028.jpg JLCPCB seemed to struggle with the spacer instructions? There were only 2 different spacers in the instructions! Not sure where the 3rd has come from? http...

Replacing Wheel Weights

I had new tyres fitted a few months ago. I asked them to use adhesive wheel weights as I'm using alloys. They said no problem and it all looked good, untl I noticed they had put the knock on weights on the inside of 3 of the wheels. Wasn't much of an issue at the time, but it turns out that the weig...

Rob

Yes, I had to leave a remark with JLCPCB regarding this. They are being installed with spacers. It's all included in the BOM and CPL files too, so it shouldn't be an issue.

Re: Dashboard PCB Replacement (CJH Design)

The flu, holidays and work have kept me busy recently. Good to see progress isn't slowing down on here though. It seems that some people have found some unused CJH kits too! I am jealous. Anyway, after a lot of back and forth with the company who made my PCB design, I've finally made my assembly ord...

Re: Dashboard PCB Replacement (CJH Design)

Cheers. I have spoken to them regarding a aluminium heat sink and they've said they can add one no problem.

I will enquire about heat sink compound also.

Re: Dashboard PCB Replacement (CJH Design)

Mica washers were used by CJH. They are meant to be great for heat absorption, do you think it needs a metal plate too? I can probably get one added while I'm waiting
