    Back in a Clio!

    Ongoing issue that's driving me mad, hopefully someone can help here? Door open light on the dash is on permanently now! I have tested the boot switch (works fine) and the front door pins have been replaced with new units (only 3 door). Problem still persists. The light went intermittent and...

    Back in a Clio!

    Well I have looked into this a little further yesterday..... I figure the boot light is dealt with on a tilt switch or similar and that works fine as it should. The boot latch part has 2 wires going into it and you can unplug it further up the loom .... Is it possible that the internal switch in...

    Back in a Clio!

    I am currently hopeful that I am very wrong with a fault! Since I have had the car, the door open warning has been on the dash. At first I thought that the light was due to damaged door pins ..... Wrong! I have replaced the front door pins with working and brand new items. Checked the boot...

    Crate engine

    I have an engine and box out of car (used of course) just needs collecting .... £130 for anyone interested because it's really in the way! Came out of a running car with 108k on the clock but no idea if it's genuine mileage or if the engine was replaced at any point and has a jc5 089 box with it...

    gearbox change can of worms

    Car is now broken and have a few parts left over ... shell has been scrapped as it was a massive stress and a pain in the a*se! The gearbox just wouldn't go back on and I lost patience .... I broke a window with the breaker bar and decided to get shut of the piece of junk! I have the engine out...

    ph2 seats in a ph1 172 wiring???

    I'm sure someone will come along that has done it before .. they usually do! Someone must have done this before, I tried to remove the airbag ECU but these don't work the same way as a Saxo does. Must be linked into the main ECU somehow, however I have been told that you can remove pin7?? from...

    ph2 seats in a ph1 172 wiring???

    O.k, if this gearbox job goes well on this damn 172 ph1 I have .. It will be time to move onto to other issues! Most annoyingly is the Airbag / Serv light being on all the time (due to airbag issues)! This is only such a problem as some r****d (or maybe retarded moron) thought it would be a...
