Go to Post If I can make one wish, it would be having Dean and Woodie read one of these writings of mine, so I can tell them "I get it! Give me time and give me inspiration, and one day I will be ready to take over the torch." - Ken Leung [more]

Re: Signal light trouble-shooting

Tell me if you agree on the following:

The white wire is power (+)
The red wire is the trigger for the relay
The black wire is ground (-)

Thats what I think is going on. I'm not sure what the individual pins for team color on the RC are. IFI does not reveal that in any of their documents.

We do know, however, that last year (and I assume this year) the channel you were on determined the color the diagnostic light would be. Either red or blue. Red is default. To get blue you had to be on channel 13 or 31. Perhaps you accidentally changed the channel? Thats one thing to check, although I think that is unlikely because I vaguely remember that you had to do something weird in order to change the channel. Hope that helps. I will try do some testing Monday.
