vk calais
Hi guys, I was wondering if anyone can help me out here. In my VK calais, I have the touch pad underneath the left side of my dash. i know 1 button is to make the antenna go down, one to go up and one for the demister. I dont think the other buttons do anything do they? and if not, can I hack into the loom and wire in my own accessories to them? if so, will the switches stay on once I press them?

You need to build a latching circuit to make the switches stayon as they are momentary, the others are for a wagon. The cluster has removable black ribbed covers for the symbols.

Sounds like a perfect excuse to use an Arduino (or other microcontroller but Arduino has a lot of online supporting info.).
