The video by mikeselectricstuff is this one:- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jT8IsAd9ea0 When I made this video I was going into hospital for an operation (hernia) the following day, so I didn't go quite as far as I could have. Maybe in the future I'll take the PCB back out, put it on a bench power supply and then probe for the presence of the PWM signal. My guess is that the vehicle detection and signalling circuit may possibly have been damaged by a static discharge from the car when it was plugged in due to the use of the earth connection as part of the signal path. That's just a rough guess though. If you enjoy these videos you can help support the channel with a dollar for coffee, cookies and random gadgets for disassembly at:- http://www.bigclive.com/coffee.htm This also keeps the channel independent of YouTube's advertising algorithms allowing it to be a bit more dangerous and naughty.
