Hazard and headlamp switches |
Posted by: Chris Hawes - 26 Sep 2006, 20:38 - Forum: 3 - Electrical

The functionality of both switches is good. Fuse is good and so are the bulbs, but the hazard switch rarely illuminates.
The headlamp switch always lit up reliably and then I took out the bulb, installed the correct LED replacement, no light. Placed back the original bulb and it no longer works. The bulb filament is still intact though.
Is it just dodgy contacts within the switches for where the bulbs gain a contact?
Thanks in advance

Short running |

If a DeLorean is started from cold, reversed out of the garage and then immediately driven back in and the engine shut off on nearly a daily basis would this do the car any harm?
This is purely for moving the car out of the way to get at other stuff in the garage...

Seat Removal |

Hello. 8)
I need your help.
To cut a long story short, I need to re-attach the handbrake cable nipples to the handbrake handle mechanism. To do this I need to remove my driver's side seat. (LHD) to get proper access to the handbrake.
Can anybody give us some quick advice on the best way to do this? I've located, underneath the rear of the seat, two square nuts that i believe are holding the seat to the rails (is this right?). Are there any other nuts holding the seat down? and is there anything else i need to look at first before I do this? :? :oops: :lol:
I'm being quite cheap and cheaky in asking this, because im in the midst of purchasing a set of manuals, which would probably tell me all I need to know...
thanks!
Barson.

Cat Bypass - rubbish fit, poor engineering. |

Mike and I have had another car playing day yesterday and so I thought it was time to fit my cat bypass pipe i bought 3 years ago.
With my car over my pit and my air tools at the ready the exhaust was off in 30 minutes ! I had a look in the cat and it had broken up slightly but still flowed OK and was spot on for the emissions for the MOT (0.02% CO)
Brilliant , or so I thought..... :roll:
When I came to fit the cat bypass pipe the fit was abysmall. We had to spend an hour chopping filing grinding etc. just for it to fit. :evil:
I hope that the quality of these have vastly improved because the one I bought was very very poor.
Just warning everyone else who thinks this is going to be a mornings work.
NickT.

Cooling fans not working |

I'm having over heating problems as the cooling fans aren't kicking in when the engine gets up to temperature. The temperature sender unit is new. Wondered if it's a relay problem or is there another switch that turns the fans on. The fan fail switch isn't lighting but that might just be the bulb.
Any help and advice would be greatly appreciated.
Ps would like to know how to get onto the locked How To's part of the forum.
Cheers
Tom
