    Unusual radio issue

    Interesting reading. I have the same problem with my Retro sound radio. Not every time but say once a week the radio display don't shut down, but there is no sound and you cant turn the radio off by pressing the left hand button. The only way is to pull the fuse.

    Hot wire junction block

    LED headlight upgrade

    Best brand for LED conversion?

    Overdrive not working

    Interesting. That little o-ring was as you say very flat. So the "sad" thing can be, it was that ring, not the converter. But Im still happy.

    I just checked the plunge right above the solenoid and it moves easily a short 1/4 of an inch. I cross my fingers and hope the new converter will fix the problem next week. happy weekend and thanks for all your help. Andreas
