No idea.
Need to be checked and confirmed by Beat diesel owners.
I am not sure on whether the instrument cluster for Beat Petrol and Diesel are same or not.
PM me if any of the Bangalore T-BHPians would like to join me for the DIY when I receive the switch.

Yes, it should work for Beat Diesel LT and LT(O) models since there is no difference in the sensor and instrument cluster. My only doubt is on Diesel's ECU. But still, technically it should work.

Only thing I envy on Diesel is the Golden Logo on steering wheel.

If Bangalore was less than 1000 KMs from here I would have joined you

Cheers!

BTW, today I got a confirmation call from rsdelivers. They confirmed that in most cases it will take less than 6 working days to get the item.

Don't worry - there is nothing to get screwed-up - only unscrewing.

Hey Salbin, A switch for me

Looking forward to hopefully joining you for the DIY when you receive it.

Sallbin, thanks for the awesome discovery, and sharing it with us here.

I can confirm that the switch works in LS variants, with the exception of temperature feature not working, as the temperature sensor is absent.

Just pulled out the dummy switch and shorted the terminals on the PCB with a wire.

Can someone help me get the black switch in Delhi?

@myavu/samarth.bhatia/chevybeat:
I can courier it to you guys from Delhi.
@samarth.bhatia:
LS can get the temperature function just by adding the temperature sensor.

Now the only question is, do we have enough switches for all Beaties?

Cheers!

Fantastic news Sablin!

Request you to shoot a video if possible of the DIY, it will help people like us to do a step by step procedure

Also, will pm you my address if you may courier the 1 switch to me please

Ohh, we are just exact on the count.

Total 10 switches received.
Required - 9 switches.

IIRC, LT and LS would require only 1 switch since Clock switch is pre-installed.
PS would require 2 switches. One extra switch for the clock.

superutp - 1 switch (Beat LT)
adg_andy - 1 switch (Beat LS)
salbin - 1 switch (Beat LT)
soumyajit9 - 1 switch (Beat LT)
samarth.bhatia - 1 switch (Beat LS)
Mr.Beat - 1 switch (Beat LT)
myavu - 1 switch (Beat LT)
chevybeat - 1 switch (Beat LT)
kphilip - Beat model unknown
