Been there, blown it up, bought a Vantec:)...
If the servo leads conduct electricity i dont see why they wouldnt work.
Have you got the ribbon wire that goes from your speedo to your interface the right way round? its possible to connect them up backwords and they wont work at all..try turning them round.
Due to the fact that your red light is on shows that your in failsafe mode. What you got powering the board? It needs around a 9v supply for it to run.

RST ushually stands for reset, I think in the manuel it sais hold it down for 3-5 seconds.

Ive got kennys old board, ive managed to reset it and reprogram - its happy now, and the test/cailbrate shows its outputs are perfect. Trouble is when I plug into 4qds I get nothing except the ignition powering up ?? any ideas
