Anker are great, just replaced my original one with a foldable one, little less bulky and 2 X ports few more watts
One charger for phone laptop and headphones etc all I carry now

Its about preventing the corrosion, you wouldn't want it conducting across all the pins and shorting the loom
The metal to metal makes the contact not the grease
Some new top mount sets on the ph1 172 and found bearings solid so guess it will make it steer a little better now and fixed the sticking rear caliper, just a quick strip and clean freed it up
Intermittent starting issue resolved and new Renault relay fitted
Then while at the electrics thought would sort the one and high speed heater fan it has, after a call to Renault 172 Ph1 part 7701206104 (Valeo) is now obsolete
Valeo part number is 515136 and still available so one...
After a little more digging and checking electrical items it turned out to be the Fuel Pump relay had corroded and failed.
I found this by swapping over relays 4 & 5 in the engine fuse box and it sprang into life and then failed to start when I swapped back
1 x new 7700414484 relay ordered...
Hi
After some ideas to help trouble shoot my Ph1 172, year 2000, intermittent staring issue, but never stops when running however, (I have skimmed the forum before asking here but cant find a definite answer to the red light meaning)
Scenario
When car locked both red lights flash, on dash...
