VVIS controller 850

Post by jantt »

Hi outthere

New in this forum and from Denmark.

I have read about a controldevice made by a guy from Netherlands called razorx.

Does anyone know about this and if it is possible to buy it somewhere ?

Can`t find anywhere to buy this switch, so did another thing.
Pumped air so that one channel is closed and disconnected it.
Now one channel is allways closed and should be the same.
Also sanded down the plastic i trottlehouse to 2-3 mm.
Seems like the car response quicker.

I have looked all his topics through and can only find that he sold in on Ebay, but it`s not there anymore.
Think the way I have done it should have the same effect.

Have tried. Don`t understand dutch and can`t see that you can change to english there.
Understand danish, swedish, norwegian, english and german, but dutch ... no :(

Will drive with the changes I have made and see how it works.

Will try to get him there, thanks.

Didn`t work with closing the VVIS like I tried. They open again. Guess not enough pressure I think so that they can stay closed.
