July 12, 200916 yr may be removing my loom, as have somewhat of an issue with my car lol removing the dash is easy, as ive had it off recenlty. is it possible to take the loom out with the engine still in? or is it impossible? pull through from the inside?
July 12, 200916 yr Leave the dash in, quite an easy job, 2-4 hours. Only thing that comes out is air con rad from behind glove box and also disconnect aircon. Did mine with engine in.
July 12, 200916 yr Author ok cheers. just thinkin my ever lasting issue may be the loom. (its either the loom or the ECU) the air con has been removed (the pump and rad at the front) think u mean the tubes/pipes that go into the car yea? then it pulls through yea? or pull from the outside?
July 12, 200916 yr Yes, where the tubes go in there is a plate inside that holds the loom in place. You have to remove this to pull the loom out into the engine bay and push the new one in.
July 12, 200916 yr Author ok cheers ant. as always you help me out :) ive got a volt meter now, and the week off work. so gonna test my ECU and the loom, see where my prob is. if i suspect the ECU, its probably easier for me to post it to you to test on yours, but i guess i could pop down if you prefer...
July 12, 200916 yr Pop down if you want, if I am away the wife is always here and you can have a go as the car is in the garage along with the spare cas. The ecu is all uncovered so only one bolt holding the loom on as I am trying another this week with a new map. If you want to wait I am back on Thursday.
July 12, 200916 yr Author yea ok cheers, il wait til thursday probly mate, dont wana touch your beuty :) il let u know how my results go from testing the loom & ECU 1st anyway, may not need to pop down :duffer:
July 12, 200916 yr Author i really wish i removed the loom from the old one before i scrapped it, i had the engine out & dash off aswell! never mind ay, be ok when sort this one :)
