Hi all,
The other day i bought a Bee-R rev limiter, only to find it doesnt work!
As i cant seem to get hold of the bloke that sold it to me, i was wondering if anyone on here can help.
I took it apart to find that the damage is localised to a transistor and a burnt out resistor (R18 on the circuit board). Does anybody know what resistor this is or anyone with a Bee-R tell me what colour the four rings around it are?
Cheers in advance,

He did you a favour, throw it in the bin and get the same thing mapped into your car.

The bee-r can cause nothing but trouble

I would do, but nobody makes a mappable ECU for the 658cc engine. and im now broke, it wasnt cheap :/

From what I've been reading they're big trouble! Have you any photos of the guts?

I do have photos, but my phone wont link them into a post!
After a lot of research ive found out that the faulty resistor (R18) tends to turn into a bomb on about 30% of all Bee-R's. Quality buy there
So not only do they cause piston rings to go, they also dent your pocket and dashboard! Think i'll be joining the people against installing aftermarket limiters from now on!

Probably the best idea really. However I did find that R18 is a 1ohm resistor with 5% tolerance. Maybe they should have put a higher power one in from the start.
