gmccormack 0 Report post Posted December 23, 2004 Is there power at the connector??? May need new Ni-Cad's, they only have limited live span just like the one's in the S.I. board. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
martyyn 2 Report post Posted December 23, 2004 The white ones are indeed for older cars and the black ones for the newer models. I cant remember the exact date they changed over sorry but I would imagine it should be a white one for yours. The also tend to die out after a while but they are so cheap its probably worth just getting a new one. Before forking out on Trademe though, check the dealers price. I dont know what its like here but people sell this stuff all the time on ebay in the UK and they are always more expensive then the dealers !
