Sweet, i might look into this Trapster a little more indepth, should work on my nokia

An update on the kickdown switch.. It is amazing the difference. The van hauls ass if you need to get stuck into it. Well worth the effort!

Just click on the Blue Trapster on my previous post and it will take you to the site - simple and easy to use, and you are part of the notification network - you see it, you report it - everyone gets to know, and can vote on the "validity" of a report.

george, heres a pic of the kick down switch.
Its a bit bush mechanic in design, but works well.
I can't tell you where to get the switch, as i found it at my grandads, sitting in a bucket rusting out in the weather. works awesome ;)

There is an issue on the site where the picture doesn't show if it is linked from the Gallery. Just enter the Gallery from the Main Menu and then navigate back to the post and the picture should come up fine.

thanks rogue, it's funny the pics work for me and some others, but not everyone.

Ben, i have a turbo 400, so it just connects to the single pin on the side of the box. 12v from a power source to the kick down switch, then a wire from the other pin on the kick down going to the pin on the gearbox.

Turbo 350 uses cable instead of 12v

Trimatic uses cable or power depending on the box as far as im aware, you'd need to know for sure. but it's the same procedure, just gotta get a switch from the wreckers or auto store..

Mods, if you want you can move the thread into the technical section as it is no longer a wanted thread, more a learning curve ;)
