Retrofit gear stick surround ambient light - sotoskon - 14:th-Feb-2015 Hi I have this plug but with only black and white wires.Will the gear stick ambient light work if i take the light and connect its own plug in this plug...I mentioned that there is 12v in this pair of wires [attachment=172] [attachment=173] Retrofit gear stick surround ambient light - Rusty2009 - 14:th-Feb-2015 It might work mate depends if the wires are in the plug (car side) I can't see why they wouldn't be. I'll grab the pin out so you can check Retrofit gear stick surround ambient light - Rusty2009 - 14:th-Feb-2015 Check you have Pin 7 on the plug in the car mate Retrofit gear stick surround ambient light - sotoskon - 14:th-Feb-2015 This is my plug (pin 10 and pin 9). [ATTACH=CONFIG]353[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=CONFIG]354[/ATTACH] Retrofit gear stick surround ambient light - Rusty2009 - 14:th-Feb-2015 Yes sorry just looked again at the pinout should be 9 & 10 which you seem to have. As your light has the male plug plug them together and see if the light work. Retrofit gear stick surround ambient light - sotoskon - 14:th-Feb-2015 I open this thread in case i'll buy the light...As you said i have the pins 9,10 but maybe i' ll need and the pin 7.What do you think? Retrofit gear stick surround ambient light - Rusty2009 - 14:th-Feb-2015 There is only 2 wires for LED power and ground. If you can get the LED with the the above plug it should just be plug and play and should also dim down.

Retrofit gear stick surround ambient light - tucpal - 14:th-Feb-2015 all this info is already in the how to http://www.vxoc.org.uk/forum/Thread-how-too-AMBIENT-LIGHT-AROUND-THE-GEAR-GATOR if you have power to the black and white wires on the body side plug then you just need to connect the led to it 9 and 10 only the other led dimming goes to buttons etc Retrofit gear stick surround ambient light - Rusty2009 - 14:th-Feb-2015 No mate I misread the pin out as I was rushing when posting as had to take dogs out Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Retrofit gear stick surround ambient light - sotoskon - 14:th-Feb-2015 tucpal Wrote:all this info is already in the how toYou mean the plug under the gear knob? Retrofit gear stick surround ambient light - tucpal - 14:th-Feb-2015 yep it is all in the how to i think there may have been i wire color change if you have a GTC Retrofit gear stick surround ambient light - tucpal - 14:th-Feb-2015 i see you have 12 volt already there in the black and white wires so you only need to add two wires from the LED to the plug and it will work there are multiple ways this can be done as not every car has the wires there but it looks like you do Retrofit gear stick surround ambient light - sotoskon - 14:th-Feb-2015 I think the only thing i have to do is to get the light with the big male plug from a dealer (as i have a manual handbrake) and connect it to my female that i post above.So i think i'll do my job... Retrofit gear stick surround ambient light - tucpal - 14:th-Feb-2015 that sounds correct yes the Manuel handbrake one does just plug in to that connector. |
