sorry, not sure about this as i've not fiddled - are you saying you've disconnected the plug in that picture from another loom?
i think McBeef's suggesting that there's another loom that runs from that plug to both foglamps (you've got four leads running into that plug)
i'd best leave this...
hopefully someone will know which loom it emerges from
ed. oh right (sorry - can see four leads now) - so you need another loom that runs from that plug to both front fogs?
may be it's been tucked away somewhere - see if you can find it coming from the rest of the front lamp loom (not sure which loom it comes out of, just assuming it's the front lighting loom)
t'is a satisfying relief, taking something like that out, as they tend to look quite bad.
everyone turns and runs whenever it's mentioned, but original formula T-Cut's about as good as it gets by hand
'scratches' like the one in that picture are easy to get out - that's just paint transfer, from having rubbed against something painted white
if it's a true scratch (ie. has cut into the surface of the paint), the only ways of sorting it are by either adding paint and levelling the surface, or...
if it's coming from the union, it could just be loose, or need a new 'o' ring. worth being sure if it's the union or the pipe first anyway (it's not easy to get at the union BTW, and the nut's alloy, so need to be careful with it)
i've inlets and a catback exhaust on mine and it 'feels' no different to std. it's been suggested that any difference would likely be noticeable if i took the bits off (which i can see), but it's still not going to be a big deal IMO
decat made a 'noticeable' difference, but hardly set fire to...
works for me as well. only recently washed mine (last done in Feb!) and WonderWheels did a good job of sorting out the baked-on brake dust - quite surprised actually
as above - connect the yellow leads together.
the block in the top right is taking power from the car's loom and passing it into the stereo through the block at the bottom - there's no continuity unless you plug the leads in
have a look at the wiring diagram in the destructions for details...
yep - connect the yellow leads together - there's no power
you may need to play around connecting the yellow to the red lead to get the memory working - the connectors will piggyback
does sound as though there's a problem with the HU then. the red/yellow lead thing is for the memory - they should both be live with the ign. on
one last thought - is this a new unit? you have connected the yellow and red leads in the new Alpine loom? (as they're not connected at all as you...
one of the black blocks is for the speakers and the other is for the power/etc. take it the fuses in the HU and the fuseboard are OK? and you're trying it with ignition on? (sorry if that's a daft question)
the small yellow block is for the steering controls and the dash display - not needed
have you changed/bled fluid recently? not normal to be able to fade brakes on road. it's easily possible if you set out to do it (ie. accelerate/brake/accelerate/brake/etc) but much more likely to be prob with fluid otherwise IMO
is this a garage job? suppose you might save a tiny bit having the mounts done at the same time as the car needs lifting to look at some of them - the cat's not in the way or anything though, so not automatically wise to consider them at the same time
guess it depends upon how the car's been...
presumably you've got a live and an earth to it? disconnect those and run test leads from the battery/good earth to check the horm itself works, and/or use test bulb to check what's coming through the loom's leads
Stebel Nautilus is a loud compact airhorn - no trumpets or tubing; just bolts on and uses existing live/earth leads. think Halfords sell them (£20ish?)
they might not be compatible, but see if the adapters on the arms you've taken off can be used; what i had to do when i bought some Halfords blades anyway
it's just one of those things; there are quite a few (dealer) bits that are only available as complete assemblies
last time i checked, d/shafts were getting on for £200/ea from Renault
could try s/h, or a reconditioning outfit
petrol is lighter than water; think it's 'about' 3.3kg/gallon
planning on removing what will go back in easily from mine once i've got one of these daft M10 eyebolts (may as well put my harness in at the same time). something to play with on a summer's afternoon anyway
removing the...
