If it fits it probably will. The cheap digital regulator on Amazon is awesome though

QUOTE(dtmehall @ Mar 21 2026, 02:49 PM)  (IMG:style_emoticons/default/av-943.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/av-943.gif) bus one is remotey mounted but uses the shared 3 pin plug with the 914 but no guarantee it will fit the relay board on the 914 ,mine didn't that I got from Pelican waiting to find a bus guy to buy it cause the pins don't line in the relayboard correctly. Shame on Pelican for selling this one for 914 fitment ,they are still selling these when they don't fit application after them selling them for a long time ,I bought genuine NOS one from vendor on here @914Sixer (Mark Heard ) ,that supply may have dried up by now ?. Buyer beware really ,cheers. |

Available again from Bosch. Unfortunately the nonsensical tariff situation has made it both difficult to get and difficult to get for a reasonable price. Sellers outside the US are reluctant to ship here without building in a hefty safety margin, and who could blame them. Here's a link to Mark's thread about them:
http://www.914world.com/bbs2/index.php?showtopic=372396 If you are in a tight spot I have an extra one, NIB, that I could sell. You can still get them from Cars245, either on eBay or directly, but shipping costs are now 3-4X what they were and you will have to pay tariffs on top of that. EDIT: Actually, I see you are in Canada. You might be able to get them from Cars245 without all the BS we have to go through here. |
