Hi,
I love the temperature compensation board fix of soldering a jumper from pin 1 to 3- I just wasn't crazy about soldering on my instrument cluster in the event that I ever wanted to revert, etc. IPD's jumper is a neat solution but $15 plus shipping cost and I especially didn't want to wait on the part. So, I took the bad temp compensation board, scraped the printed circuity off around each of the four pin connecters with a utility knife and soldered a jumper on the board from pins 1 to 3. Voila! My own little jumper kit. I checked it with an ohmeter to make sure only pins 1 and 3 had any continuity between them to make sure I had scraped enough. It works great!
Someone may have already come up with this but I couldn't find it in the archives so forgive me if it is redundant. Also, thanks to whoever originated the 1 to 3 jumper idea. Info like that is why I love the brickboard.
Thanks!
Lyle
