are you sure the 3 wires that go into the 510 are the correct way round, when i did mine a very long time ago i found i got them wrong and had to have a little swap around, all way a lot better after, might be worth a try.

going from RCD300/500 t RCD310/510/RNS510.

Requires two of the wires to be swapped around while the 3rd wire needs to be relocated to a new pin.
