I had a profec B specII fitted recently at zedworld. As i had given Jeff about 2 days work to do in 1 day (handy of me ) we decided I would set it up myself. I copied some basic settings i found on a search here for 9psi lo and 13psi hi, then realised it was reading in kPa. Tried pressing buttons as the instructions said to switch to psi which i thought i had done correctly, but recently I have been told it should say psi on the display near where kpa was.. but it doesnt! Also just in normal mode it spends forever pretty much at 0 gave the car a good run yesterday and the display didnt change nor was a peak registered (even though peek is on?) then randomly…

Spent the day removing the dash to replace the heater matrix. I know it can be done without removing it but I decided to remove everything so it would be easier. I'm sorry I ever started it. The main box which houses the matrix won't come out, I don't actually know what to do now . if anyone can look at the pic and advise me what do next, or pm me a phone number if they have done this job successfully with the whole dash removed i would be very grateful.i've given up for the night in pure frustration, tomorrows another day I guess. I'm just thick i reckon cheers.
