Hi - As anyone experienced their dashboard display & LEDs staying on for about 20 seconds on the Wavy dashboard model after switching the ignition off and removing the key?
This happens intermittently but generally after a run
Any advise appreciated
Thank you

That's really helpful thanks - I'll call Ian - I'm not sure what the TVR&#12856 means, is that a reference number of some sort?
Thanks again Paul

Thanks again Tony - I spoke with Ian this morning (I must say he was very helpful), he sais this is a very simple fix, it is the result of feedback on the alternator - Takes 5 minutes to fit a Suppressor on the Alternator
The next challenge is a 3.5 hour journey to TorqueRVT

Tony - I'm going brave with a couple of friends next Sunday- I bought a suppressor and were going to fit it ourselves, at the same time I'm going to change the hot leads to Magnecores !!

Unfortunately no luck today, we wired the suppression capacitor between the Alternator output and Earth and the fault remains, strange as I have the same symptoms that when I touch the break pedal the dashboard goes off immediately .
At least why I had the bonnet off we were able to fit new plugs & Magnecores plus a new power steering relay for reliability

So if anyone else reading this thread has any ideas please let me know
