Power button doesn't seem to work...

When I push the power button it doesn't seem to do anything. Would it just be a fuse problem? Cheers

Yeah, that power button doesn't really achieve much. All it does is hold a gear for longer under hard acceleration.

I believe it ups the line pressure a touch too. I honestly didn't notice the difference aside the change to OD speed until I put the blower on, lol. Power is not the right word for this button.

Does it do nothing or does it just not do what you expect ?

Like the guys have said it's really just a 'shift gear differently' button. Changes earlier, holds longer. You should be able to notice the difference if you're paying attention.

If a PWR light appears on dash then it's working , all it does is , as mentioned is hold the gears longer

 

[Morley21]

It does nothing (not the only one to try it) and no light comes on. But the light for an open door doesn't come on either. So I expect I need to get some new fuses.

 

[Morley21]

Or could it be possibly stuck in? As when I accelerate hard/quickly the car seems to stutter/shudder and then drops back a gear.

Generally speaking you can just leave it the OFF position.

I only have mine on in passing as quickly as possible out on a country road.

Hahaha, I'm the opposite, I only switch power off when I'm around the constabulary.

I don't even have a power switch. I have a vq shifter plate and it has no provision for one lol. There's absolutely no reason to use it anyway unless you're hell bent on using more fuel
