Going to start this thread for members to post up what they did each day to there zed. I will start with getting my MOT this morning. So what did you do today on your 300?:cool3:

Mine is a series 2, completely different loom.

 

I have traced it back to the ignition relay and even that is not getting power.

 

 

Not sure if its any use to you lee but i have a good working series one ptu in my spares dept if you want to try it mate?

 

Pretty certain you'll be using series 2 but if you need it, let me know mate

Seems strange that the power wouldnt be making it to the relay?

I would have suggested the ignition barrel but if its turning over that rules that out...

Where does the power supply stop?

not getting power the the relay so need to trace back from there.

 

The next place is the 30amp fuse next to the rear left of the engine, but i dont think that is blown.

Well hope you get to the bottom of it mate.. these things are sent to try us huh..

Im sure you'll get it sorted lee.. good luck

Full brake flush today from ATE Super Blue (no longer available) to ATE TYP200 brake fluid (same DOT4 spec but not

blue). The colour change from blue to amber made things a lot easier in knowing when the old brake fluid was completely

flushed out. 10 bleed nipples and 1.5 liters later the job was done. The blue tube has a one way valve on the end and

the reservoir is clamped to the brake disc with a magnet.

 

Neat idea with the magnet Andrew, I’m stealing that one! [emoji106] I also use the TYP200 DOT4 fluid now but I hadn’t discovered it when the super blue was available.

Treated myself to an afternoon off so got some small jobs done I've been meaning to do for a while. First I finished the car port/garage off, no driving rain will be getting in any more. Then fitted the door pillar trim & a very nice mirror switch which looks like it's never been touched.

Looks like you've had Gromit in there too Tom!

 

 

Lol yeh just a small layout in the man cave I've been working on the past few weeks.

Cool - always been a model railway fan; but I left my old layout at my parents' house back in the mid-90s as it was too big to take when I left home..... And I've never had the time or space to build another since :sad:

 

It's something I would like to pick up again in about 5 years, I reckon....:wink:

Same here Richard, I had a big layout in my mum & dad's garage but had to dismantle it when I left. This new one is much smaller so loads of spare track left over but happy to have it back up & running.

Thought I’d clean car over weekend and of course put back in garage and cover it over.

Just checked the gov site and MOT time is looming!

Have to fit rear reflectors, fog light and replace the eagle eyes again as the offside side lights and indicators have got wet and fried again!

 

Cheap chinese S#%t LEDs! Gonna have to spend some time trying to waterproof the new ones properly to try and make them last longer..

 

 

Anyway, once these jobs are done, its fingers crossed time again lol

Are you talking about the lights in your rear clusters? Can’t you get Hella units to fit in those?

I might drive it this year lol

 

And I know where you can drive it. Big show coming up watch this space. :wink:

Today, I started the Zed and drove it out of the garage.....

 

…..So I could get to the rear of the car and replace the boot catch. Had an issue with the interior light not going out when the boot was closed. Changed the catch (£25 from Ebay) and all is well once more....:cool:

Today - despite the snow.....

 

 

 

 

…..nope, I didn't take it out :lol: I simply sat in front of the PC and renewed the road tax for another year...:cool:

Finally had chance to inspect my new sill in daylight. It's good and solid.

No driving though, snow ploughing is not one of its fortés.

Replaced the battery for a nice new Bosch S4 068 battery
