Time fly, it seemed like only a few years ago, they charged $3.50 for those keys.

Ted,

When mechanical guages start acting up, making noises, jerky needle, stuff like that - disconnect the cable right now, not when you get home or even the next town. Find a wide spot in the road or a driveway and disconnect that cable!?

It's best getting both gauges serviced since when one needs attention, the other isn't far behind.?

Inactivity is bad for lube - it dries up and leaves just the carrier whatever that is - soap? No lubrication there!

There are several places to send them in the US - N Hollywood, Overseas, Palo Alto (expensive), and Wirespokes.?

Terry

Hey Chris,

It looks like Mike K. confirmed it does work with the Enduralast 450 Watt system. I haven't installed a 450 Watt system... yet, but have installed it with the EnDuraLast II - 400 Watt system and it works great.


EDIT: Actually, it looks like the Electronic Ignition system is different for the 450 Watt charging system. This is the one for the 450 Watt - . It's designed specifically for the 450. The one I listed above works with the 400.
