ECU, i know you have to use one on modern day cars when fitting towbar electrics but not sure about bike trikes???? I assume you have to if it's fitted with a ECU

Ahhhhh, that makes sense.
Wet finger in the air, I would have thought it would be ok without one.
It is bikes with a Canbus that tend to be a problem, as the additional voltage drops can cause false positives on warning lights.
Bikers know why dogs stick their head out of car windows.

I think your right, I was getting confused with ECU & ICU "it's old age you know" should be OK to wire direct into loom with inline fuses after further investigation :thumbsup:

We use a place in Matlock Bath.
She used to be next to CMC Clay Cross but moved last year or so.

£35 for about 16 patches between me and Vicki. Got some more need doing but she was shut Tuesday cos the bloody council had dug up the pavement outside the entrance. They couldn't get rid of the bikes so try to shut the bike shops down.
