About INDY-CATOR
First, we would like to explain to you the function
of the digital gear display:
It works according to the principle of forming the
difference between two position sensors. As a
result, the selected transmission is displayed for
you. The electronic system recognises even the
smallest changes of positions of the gear lever
knob. It works completely independently of the
vehicle transmission. Only if a position change is
safely recognised as a transmission change will
the display change.
This may take 1 - 1.5 s.
This transmission display is to serve as an aid.
We assume no warranty for correctness of the
display.
If the transmissions are not displayed correctly
for some reason, please repeat programming
with the motor/gear at operational temperature.
Depending on vehicle type and
gear position, extreme vehicle acceleration
may lead to short-term reading changes on the
display. This is based on the physical characteri-
stics of the sensors and does not constitute any
malfunction.

Gear lever knob installation
Connect the plus line from the ignition and
ground line to the power supply lines of the
reference box (red to 12 Volt from the ignition,
black to ground). The included cable clamps can
be used here. Finding possible reference box
position. De-grease this surface for gluing on
the reference box (3) and clean it. Data cable
connection between the LCD gear lever knob and
reference box (3) (it is unimportant, which one of
the two sockets is used). Fasten data cable to the
gear lever with cable tie as strain relief!

Switch on ignition briefly to check display or
connections. Reprogrammed display shows a
rotating or running bar.
1.1.1
Disassembly of the original gear lever knob and
gear boot: Install LCD gear lever knob and gear
boot (the data cable at the gear lever knob must
not be damaged). The gear boot can be placed
between the gear lever knob and the retention
ring (to cover it) or below the retention ring.
For this, the retention ring can be pushed on in
two different directions (fig. 2 and 3) with radius
up or radius down.

your car – for gear recognition and display)
2.1.1
The vehicle should be placed on a surface that
is as level as possible before programming.
Since the vehicle has to start in first gear after
programming (light acceleration), please ensure
now that there are no obstacles (20 metres
straight on are sufficient) and that traffic is not
impaired.
2.1.2
Start the engine – gear lever set to idle!
2.2.1
LCD Colour selection:
(Colour change by position change of the refe-
rence box). Keep the reference box button (3)
pressed for approx. 5 s until „C“ is displayed,
then let go of the button.
Tilt the reference box forwards and backwards
in your hand to start colour selection. The colour
changes in small nuances when the reference
box position is adjusted slightly. Briefly confirm
desired colour by pressing the push-button on

and ready for operation. Please switch off the
motor. (Programming remains saved with the
display/ ignition switched off). The gear boot
and any applicable covers in the car can now be
re-assembled.
