ball is in his court at moment see what happens did make me laugh though with response, ad states its a mechanical gauge god knows what voltage is all about think guy is having a bad day. :smiley: :smiley: :smiley:



just emailed the guy who had trouble with 2 gauges like myself to see what the outcome was, but what with him and wazzer and me hopefully i will get somewhere with this as this is not on i think.

update just got reply from dan who has had trouble with seller and told he keeps getting fobbed off by him so i think a dispute is on the cards to be honest. :sad: :sad: :sad:

a dispute it is then mate. I've just sent another email so we'll see what he says. My mate at work is fully qualified to fit electronics to submarine distress buoy controllers for the MOD so I'll get him involved if needs be :grin:

Yep see what he has to say on matter and go from there, it states recommended fitting by professional 3 wires for fitting if you use dimmer come on not rocket science the wiring.

And like you say it doesn't affect the mechanical side of it

this is what i got from seller today, ive had enough after 2 gauges now and dont fancy moving the nut as mines painted with green paint and bet guy will say you have tampered with it and thats why it wont work.

Ok Mate, Based on the fact that we have very few problems, we can assume that a third faulty item will be very very unlikely, please return it to us with your full address and we will exchange it a final time,.
regards,
Paul,,mark it for my attantion.and put your filled in paperwork inside.Your returns number is

Regards

Symon

dont like the final time bit if you ask me if items not working theres no final time, ive asked for full refund on item and im sure he is going to offer just a replacement which sorry i dont want as i have no faith after 2 of them, guy on ebay had 2 aswell so thats 5 that are faulty now not good if you ask me.  :sad: :sad: :sad:
