I have two questions in one here about the Touchmaster Delta.
First, how do I get the backlight to light up? I've only seen one on YouTube where the backlight was activated. The poster said that what he did was run a jumper from terminal 1 (Panel) to one of the terminals for the Aux switches. I tried this to no avail. All cables are powered, although I'm using fuses instead of circuit breakers as recommended by the install manual. Would wiring the ignition cable and a jumper from terminal 1 in a way that simulates an ignition switch do the trick?
Second question is about the LED lighting for the Aux buttons. I have them all working just fine, except the buttons used for takedowns and right alleys on the unit that the siren was pulled from are quite dim when activated. Took a closer look and it looks like one of the red LEDs on one button is out and the other either dim or pushed out of place from heavy use. The other button in question has both LEDs functioning, but they're quite dim. Again, they look like they've been pushed out of place by heavy use. The green LEDs on both buttons work just fine. Is there any way to fix the red LEDs on these buttons or would I have to replace the entire button?
Both issues are purely cosmetic; the siren itself functions beautifully. Cleaned it up and straightened out the slide switch as much as possible and have been treating myself to the music of the Unitrol wail .
