Title: Flashing pod lights
Post by: Giles on 27, June, 2013 - 08:08:07

Hi, I understand radio Marty can repair pods.
I have sent a number of messages to try and get my flashing pod lights fixed with no joy as yet.
Can anyone pass me his mobile number or another method of contact, email?
I have left all my phone numbers a few times via PM on here.
If anyone see's or chats to him, please let him know my C5 needs his help! :)

I was hoping to arrange a run out for 'team C5' in Stratford down the greenway a well used cycle route down an old railway line, I've done it on my C5 and it's very pleasant with a converted rail carriage cafe along the way. But I need my C5 fixed first! :)
Cheers, Giles

I hate to be the one to tell you this, but Radiomarty has just announced his retirement from C5's... A great loss to the Sinclair community and I don't think we've found a new repairman yet!

From memory it's either the two either side of centre or the middle and left and right side.
I'm a bit gutted about radio Marty because we did exchange messaged and he said he could do it!
Oh well.
Cheers, giles

Flashing lights on left side is normally associated with a  fault in the control box  :(

Changing the OP amp may help and have a look at the caps.
