    First Car Project - Clio 172 PH1

    Thanks for posting the bleed process! i probably should do this with mine rather than just fill it up and hope for the best! tbh that method has always worked in the past. Regarding the shafts - look up Peter Withers on Facebook, he's the guy that I used (also i think the person that posted...

    looks very clean! welcome!

    Braided lines for the centre section.

    It should be just a case of specing the length and end form and getting them to mock them up. Are you planning on running them along the same routing as the hard lines as you may need something more substantial holding them to the body. Flexible lines will want to sag more than hard lines. You...

    Ignition not turning off

    Well, if anyone else reading this has some wiring diagrams for the ph1 showing where the switch lives from the ignition barrel go that would be ace! :D

    Ignition not turning off

    Is there a relay bank in the car that houses a main ignition relay do you know? Sounds like a good start. Yeh already got the hazard switch on my list of things to try.

    Ignition not turning off

    I'm also running a gen90, not sure there is cross over with that... Is there a main ignition relay somewhere I can investigate? A sticky relay sounds more plausible to me, perhaps that's just me hoping it's not the UCH as that sounds like a headache. Also, I'm sure this is completely unrelated...

    Ignition not turning off

    Bit of a weird one! But went to run up my track car this evening to find the battery completely dead. Not a sausage. My nephew had been playing with the switches so I assumed it was just him playing around and I had left the ignition on by mistake. No bother, stuck it on charge for a bit. Then...

    Fan Wiring

    No worries, I'm pretty sure I've sorted it. I wasn't sure even which one the fan plug was, since I dumped the fan a while ago during the strip down. Planning on doing a quick short of ECU pin#69 ;) to ground to confirm the fan comes on then it's another hurdle overcome!

    Ph1 Headlights New

    So my ph1 headlights are in pretty poor condition including some internal adjustment mechanisms broken. Most of the genuine ones you see online are also faded with snapped mounts. There does seem to be places selling OEM looking ones brand new for a range of prices. Has anyone ever tried any...

    Fan Wiring

    Sorry, just realised that pin A5 on relay 234 goes to pin 2 on the resistor so doesnt actually go through the resistor. My comment regarding not understanding how you get high power fan on ph2 is void. Interesting that they did it differently on the ph1 and ph2 for seemingly no benefit, maybe...

    Fan Wiring

    That is excellent @Brigsy Thank you! Studying this and my ph1 wiring I believe it looks like this on the ph1: I am not sure in your image for the ph2 how you would end up getting a different fan power on the low and high speed settings if both are going through the same resistor. Anyway, the...

    Fan Wiring

    Awesome! I am also trying to adapt to a comex fan. Would I be right in thinking the plug with two wires going to a single terminal is the fan plug and the other the resistor? As marked up above? And to bin the resistor you just remove the sections I've crossed out?

    Replacing Clio 172 ph1 center radio frame

    Yikes! That's a big hole! Bottom dash off unfortunately to access behind it. I'm pretty sure there's stuff in the way of you try and get at it by just taking the top dash off but worth checking. Maybe you could cut away whats being to squeeze it through and glue it on. That being said if it...

    Fan Wiring

    Hey, any input is appreciated! Knowing it's a resistor definitely helps because my theory does make some sense assuming it's just a dumb electric motor running the fan. I'm not looking to fix anything though, I just want an easy two wires going to my aftermarket fan, that come on when coolant...

    Fan Wiring

    Unless it sends power via the resistor for a low speed mode and direct to the motor for high speed? 🤔. I think the low speed mode was for low speed ac performance meaning I could just cap off the wire to the left plug and just keep the other going direct to the right plug.
