Just a minor thing...I notice your screen opens and then closes again when you start the engine. You can either wire in a feed from the starter circuit to cure this, or do what I did...
Wire in a capacitor across the positive and earth cables, but makes sure you put in a diode aswell otherwise it just drains into the earth cable.
I think I used a 220uF capacitor, which keeps the screen open for approx 5 seconds.Good work on the set-up though!

Cheers for the info sprinter I may give that a shot. It only seems to happen if I pause for a second between ign and cranking. If you flick the key round quickly it only does it once.
