As many know by my annoying posts, I've been installing the ST205 cluster on my AT200. Two members have been contributing greatly to this project with their knowledge and even provided me somewhat of a guide. I went over it many times and everything works. Every light works. My temperature needle is insane, but w.e. I'm not worried about that one right now as I pretty much just got a new cooling system, radiator & company. My gas gauge also is on empty which is not accurate. But my main issue now is the car itself. It won't turn off...

The cluster has 3 plugs in the back. The blue plug(the one to the right) is the one with the problem. I know this because when I turn off the car and pull the keys out, the engine stays on. All else turns off properly(cdplayer, windows, etc.). And as soon as I pull the blue plug out, the engine turns off. I mean, that's okay except then I would have to pull my cluster out and yank the blue plug out everytime I turn off the car. Lol. Not too convinient. I noticed the two people that were helping me have manual cars... Mine is auto. I'm not sure if that has anything to do with it but I'm very worried.

If anyone knows what this could be, I would really appreciate some help. Thanks.

You probably don't even need a switch, just a pushbutton. Hold it down for about a sec and the engine will shut down.

Still I don't see why it's worth all this trouble to have a cluster in the wrong speed and not show how much gas you have, temp. sensor, etc.

hey, nice mod does it come in hetero?

the speed displays correctly. it shows in km/h but that's fine. i know approx what is what because i go to colombia every summer and over there its all in km/h anyway. lol. i remember my first time there my uncle going 140 ends up he was really doing like 85. lol. but yeah, it sucks. when i turn on the car, the temp shoots up to "hot". so i dunno, then it acts gay, like it comes down a bit but then goes up... maybe when i refill gas, the fuel gauge will move up. lol. this whole project has been a nightmare. i got wires all over the place and the steering wheel aint on there so i cant drive the bitch. lol. aaaaah. last time i do something nobody else has done before. lol. pushbutton? wouldnt it have the same on/off function as the switch?
