Outside Temp Display Problem
#1

My outside temp display works and illuminates perfectly during daytime with the headlights off. At night when I switch on the headlights, the display turns black, no display and no illumination. Do I need to replace the temp display? It's expensive!

Thanks!

It sounds like just the lamp needs replacing. It should backlight when you turn on the lights. Mine had the same problem. I bought 2 bulbs (1 for spare). It was about a 10 minute fix. Search the forum and you'll find some good instructions on it.

Good luck!

I changed the bulb and still the same problem. It only lights up when the headlights are turned off.

sounds like 2 pins are reversed - no idea how that would happen

I guess I will just disconnect the illumination pin so that it will stay on day-illumination even when the headlights are on. Looks pretty cool that way too!
