Default Dash Inverter Details?

Can anyone please tell me the exact details printed on the original Inverters. I've checked on previous thread photos and there is a tywrap covering some of the print.

Cheers, Gez

Anyone? I have a mate in the pcb assembly business, he said he'll do a check with the component manufacturers and suppliers to see if he can find them. I've seen the thread with the RS inverter, but a direct pin match would be easier. I thought somebody might have a knackered one or a new spare one, without having to strip the clocks out of the car.

i work in the electronics industry too mate and the original inverter is no longer available as it was a special i think. All you have to do is buy one of the ones that are available and make it fit.

Mikedaf2, I'm not doubting you mate, I'd just like to find out and do another search.
Can anyone let me know what it says on the inverter?

Cheers, Gez

Unhappy

Just had an email back from erg, see below.

Thank you for the inquiry. In short, to the best of our knowledge, this inverter is no longer available. This is a part that was produced, under license from us back in the 1980s by a UK firm (long before my time here). However, as far as we can tell, that company no longer exists. Also, we did not produce an equivalent part here.

Apologies that we could not be more helpful.

fairly conclusive id say.
