power 12v+ - Pins 29 &30 All fine, i did try and measure voltage drop when cranking. and noticed it drop to around 8v? on both pins
Fuses (engine bay) -...
as a member of DW you do of course listen to the professionals with regards to product choice and i personnaly have really reviewed any product i have bought, like most things i purchase. The costs soon add up when you purchase the wax of one particular brand and then want the matching products...
Had glasur and loved it. Half a pot for £45. But ised along with hd cleanse and field glaze. Now got some swissvax best of show coming. 40% full for £40, although I have a few other swissvax bits coming also to complement it. Also have supernatural hybrid £25 and a few others
For me I have always bought the car I want a the bottom of the pile. Ie the cheapest. Hence a £700cup with 155k on it!!! Regardless of service history and have owned a lot of cat cars. Although now I'm gettin older I have decided my most wanted affordable car is an e46 m3. I know there buyable...
I had always made money on cars. Cat c 106 Diablo gti with 50k on clock. Paid £500, needed a head gasket which I done and service. Owed me £680. Sold for £2150. Sold it within 2 days to a local lad who had money To burn being in the army. Didn't care about being a cat and was over the moon with...
Do you want to be rid of the swirls totally or would filling them be an option? I use 3m pad and polish of various grades when doing correction work via a rotary. I do have some waxes and cleansers for sale in the sale section and the auto glym stuff I have may well be right up your street
Ye I've read your problems, I'm still convinced its a break in a wire. However I have run a new cable from the uch direct to the Ecu with still no luck? Gonna try again 2mro in between helpin the Mother in-law move house and going to see Santa with my son!
the white wire being, Pin 27 of the ECU plug to Pin 20 of the UCH. if so i have already ran a dedicated wire from the uch pin out to the ecu. i piggy backed the wires?
I'm going to go through the same as what I done today again. I have stripped the loom back to where it splits of at the 90 degree bend but I think I still need to go further back, but its a pain with the coolant pipes in the way. I may strip them out in the morning
From experience mick what else could cause this? Or would you still think wiring issues? ecu power Problem? UCH? I'm really wanting the Ecu pin outs diagram,so I can work out where I should have 12v, or where I should have signal voltages. I'm no auto spark but an electrical/mechanical engineer...

my missus 172 cup wont start.
ive searched/read various posts over the last 24hours on here with some great help but to none avail, and am running out of options.
symptoms are:
key in ignition to stage 2 and red light stays constant - i am lead to believe this could be the purple/white...
My car is doing exactly the same thing. Apparently according to a thread I found earlier if the light flashes really quick it means it's an immobiliser issue. If it goes solid red it Mean's the key and decoder are talking but there's a power issue to the Ecu. Which could potentially be a broken...
UPDATE
had the car over my friends pit and sorted the blowing exhaust which just needed the clamp re-aligning, there was also an annoying rattle, which turned out the be a washer/nut type combo which attaches the heat shields to the underside of the car. Quick trip to renault and £1.80 later it...
