Default sorry..its about the SiR cluster again

i made a post earlier about how my EG SiR cluster has bad lighting from the 100-120km point. i concluded from the replies that this is normal for these clusters. but i came to a thought ....i remember when i had my crx and i put in the SiR cluster that it was dim as well and that it needed a ground to light it up a lot brighter. my question is, does the original SiR harness have a ground for its cluster that my DX doesnt have???? does anybody have a wiring diagram of the SiR cluster pinouts and of my DX cluster pinouts that i can look at? TIA

no the dimmer doesnt work...but i was told earlier that there is no dimmer for the SiR2 cluster...or is there? i remember a while back my cousin was told by somebody at a shop that a couple of wires need to be switched around, but i dont remember what it was. the guy i bought it from said that the problem was very common, but why do most people have the problem and others dont?? my guess is that it has to do something with the wiring. anybody with pinout diagrams? anyone? i really want somebody to prove me wrong on this one. saying that most people have this problem just isnt enough for me. TIA

SiR's don't come with dimmers for the lights... I should know, I've got one...
And like I mentioned above, even in my SiR, they are generally very dimly lit,
so perhaps you might quit looking for problems that arent there...

ok i see what you are saying....but im not trying to fix the problem that the whole cluster is dim, JUST THE SECTION FROM 100-120KM (doesnt light up at all). can you send me a pic of your cluster lit up at night EG6-SiR? im just curious. if not, forget it then. i guesss im just going to have to live with it

Im a little late to this but, there are very few people who have the problems with the sections of the cluster not lighting up at all and I have not found the solution to it.

Mines has about 80,000km and its always been dim, they are not meant to be bright so if yours does not dim, do not worry about. They do not adjust, but obviously there is somethin wrong if just lights up partially.
