Guys

 

Just wondering if anyone can help with the following:

 

- when car is sat at idle, it goes in a cycle. Every 10 secs or so the revs dip slightly, the dashboard lights get a little brighter momentarily and there is a relay/motor type click/whir from the drivers door. The revs then pick up again for the next 10 secs. Not investigated the click/whir yet, but just wondered if anyone had any ideas.

 

- got an aftermarket steering wheel fitted, and been having the hicas problem (drive for 5 mins, hicas light comes on and steering goes heavy until ignition off) ever since. Invested in a Conzult (thanks Danny). The steering angle was reading 430 or something when wheels were straight. I've corrected this, but the problem still returns. then I noticed the conzult hicas screen is not getting a speed reading. I assume this is the problem. The speedo is working, but I don't think is accurate (another problem to fix). Any thoughts?

 

- I had the clocks removed and the small (size of 2 dice) kph->mph converter was removed. To fit it, 2 wires up to the connector going into the back of the clocks has been cut and crimp connectors attached. The wires are both yellow, one with blue stripe one with green stripe. I don't know which one it should be inserted into, or whether the other one should remain connected. This may be related to problem above. Any suggestions?

 

CHEERS!!

badger stoat weasel :D

LOL :D

 

Clicking will more than likely be the AIV solenoid coming in and out. Look near the brake master cylinder, you'll see 2 solenoids, I think the top one is the AIV - try taking the plug off that then testing the car again ;)

:D

 

Cheers mate. Why do you think the revs do that cyclic dipping and rising thing. Its like the thing is breathing or something lol!
