Bro Blackmerc i swap cashcards, check wiring etc. In normal situation usually either the green light or the red light will light up the cash value in the card will be displayed when cashcard is inserted into the IU. But this time non of that happens.

Guess its the same IU problem for the FLW204 just like what the pre FL gone thru during the early days.

Hope it will not be many more visits to STA workshop. But only once.

I see, go desmondtoo advice & forget See&See. Coz the IU is under warranty & can replace FOC at any vicom inspection station.

A friend of mine driving a six-year-old car told me our IU comes with a five-year warranty. His IU died on him recently. He was told to replace it at his own cost, more than $200 if I recall correctly. He was like "WTF, I pay $$$ to replace a piece of equipment that enables the govt to suck more $$$ from me?"

Went to STA, the uncle told me only new car get new set. Your car if you insist we can change but only recon set. Told him my car less than a month but.he said its like that. ok lor as long as it work I dont care.

Any bro know how to tell if the IU is new or recon set???????

Recon or not is not an issue, warranty is your concern, did you check with them?

Bto blackmercs, I did not chk with STA abt warranty issue. The next time the IU malfunction again I will send car to si n si n let them sort it out w STA whether d IU or wrong wiring is d problem.
