Thread: SLS Remote

This is how it works. Mounted on my dash is a switch. Ignition has to be on, but it will work with either motor running or not running.

When I push the spring loaded switch down and hold it, the bells start chiming and the appropriate light on the dash flashes. At any time you let go of the switch it then stops and stays at that point.

The same applies when going up. It stops automatically when it it reaches top or bottom limits and automatically raises back to normal height when the car reaches a certain speed. What this speed is I do not know, as there is no indication telling me this is happening, it just happens. I do know that it starts at a very slow speed, below 20kph I suspect.

Hi Dave,

Do you think you can post the pic of the switch installed on the dashboard? Thanks.

Will do it tonight. I am a bit busy at the moment, and after just having 10mm of rain in about two minutes, my D2 is sitting in about 72 mm of water.

Here is the photo. I placed the switch so I did not have to drill any holes in the dash.

The maker, Dave Pye, suggests mounting it in one of the blank switches on the side of the instrument binnacle. This is a good spot but the only blank one I have is on the left side, and I wanted easy access through the window.

I have ordered one of these which I am hoping will work. It will work if, when holding down the button, it sends a constant signal. For its small price I am prepared to risk it.
