What to do if illumination of Defi Control Unit gauge does not turn on?
If the illumination of the gauge on your Defi Control Unit does not turn on, first check the ILM wiring according to the instructions. Ensure that the solderless connectors are securely locked. Also, verify that the brightness level is not set to MANUAL LEVEL:0, and if the dimmer setting is on AUTO, consider changing it, especially if the outside is bright.
What to do if Defi ADVANCE FD tachometer RPM is not displayed correctly?
If the RPM is not displayed correctly on your Defi Control Unit, check the wiring of the tachometer signal. Also, verify that the setting for the number of cylinders is correct according to the instructions.
What to do if Defi ADVANCE FD Control Unit speed is not displayed correctly?
If the speed is not displayed correctly on your Defi Control Unit, check the wiring of the speed signal wire according to the manual. Also, verify that the speed pulse setting is correct.
Why Defi ADVANCE FD Control Unit does not carry out the ending mode?
If your Defi Control Unit does not carry out the ending mode, check the battery wiring. Also check the solderless connector of battery wiring. If any defects are not found, please ask the store for inspection.
How to fix Defi ADVANCE FD when FD doesn't respond by pressing the switches?
If the FD (display) doesn't respond when pressing the switches on your Defi Control Unit, the switch wire might be connected to the meter wire connector (white). Reconnect it to the switch wire connector (black).
Why is system setup menu not displayed on Defi ADVANCE FD Control Unit?
