Thinking of coming back to the dark side ?

As far as tradition goes it was battered and with chips from the local chipy, I did wash it down with a bottle off miller.

Wee, sleekit, cowran, tim'rous beastie, O, what a panic's in thy breastie! Thou need na start awa sae hasty, Wi' bickering brattle! I wad be laith to rin an' chase thee, Wi' murd'ring pattle! Happy Rabbie Burns day everyone !

Well I had a haggis supper tonight ! Excellent stuff !

no probs, i'll likely be wearing my club cap as its never off ma head. lol

lol, long as we bring a donor car along for spares :whistling:

yip, take the solenoid out and join the pipes !

- On your marks - Get set - Go for Glasgow as the 2013 Monte Carlo Classic race starts from Scotland this Saturday ! I'm heading up to Glasgow this saturday for the start so i'll get some pics and hopfully some good video shots. Heres the 2013 route - is it passing you ?

That looks like an alarm for a hawk alarm ! i used to have one but the sounder was far to silent and could be muffled with your hand on the one I had. local cats had more sound power than that alarm, eventually I bought a fat toad, lol

Here's mine : Its got keys for my work, home and the zed, also a door access fob and two key rings thinga bobs.

Sure was, thanks for supporting the club !:cool3:

Just replied, The email and links are genuine and I've explained why in my email. Lee

Doing an IP check all the above addresses fall within BT's network. Although that just could mean that the servers generating the email if they are rough are hosted by BT. Best thing to do is report the email to BT directly if you can or start using a spam blocker. Where does the link it provides take you too ? Can you forward the full email too lee.young@jaikai.co.uk and i will check it out. Lee

Happy Birthday, hope you had a great day!

I'm sure I am as its in the club calendar !!

What I'll do is get an extension out and power it up from a dc main adaptor directly at the transformer. Then I'll know for sure, could be I've stuck the wrong transformer on it as I have a few lying around or it simply could be a drop in voltage.

It is, still have the issue with the panel looking more orange as I'm sure when I tested it a few months back it was much darker red!

Drove the zed to work today and thought the rear panel switch i pain stakenly fitted at the week end was broke. I first thought it was broke when i stopped at the traffic lights as the blue neon light on the button was lit and when i looked at it it was in the off position so i thought to myself how can it be lit as its only supposed to be lit when depressed. But then as the traffic lights changed i drove off and it turned off again; then i realised that my bad habbit of foot on the break was actually causing it. With a twist of fate i created a cool feature in that the secondary cable that is suppose to bypass the relay from the switch actually gets voltage when the relay triggers and in turn lights the led as it has its own seperate ground. So now i know when the rear panel is lit as the switch lights blue when i break and when i press it on permantely. Cool eh !!:cool3:

Wooo, the big 5 0 is it !!:smartass:

lol, I know, I was only messing, it does look like it but you did state it was a year ago !

did I not say before i'm up for this ? as long as its a weekend and not too late purely because of the drive to get there.

Lol, did you get the idea from my original thread ? think ill stop posting ideas until there fitted and tested, haha

For a while now i've been wanting to get my rear center panel wired up with and el panel; actually ive had the actual el panel since last june when our very own phutumsch converted my 99 spec one. So over the last week i've been redoing some wiring internally; adding a button here and there and getting things going. Now i didn't want any old switch on my dash but rather some extra cool functionality that i've never seen before in a zed. First off the switch is a small two way brushed aluminum switch which i've placed to the right of the hand break area, its purpose is to switch a 12v current down two lines going which i installed from the head unit area to the rear of the zed. The first line goes directly to the el transformer and the second goes into a relay which is triggered by a spur coming off the break light system. So when the switch is in its normal off position the relay is energized and when i break the el lights up along with the other lights. When the switch is on it over rides the relay and powers the el transformer directly. A month or so in the planning and yesterday and today i stripped the zed and wired it all up to this result : and this is what i get with the breaks engaged : The whole system works perfectly although i think i have a voltage drop via the relay as the el actually lights up more orange now than red. Also it doesn't trigger any bulb warnings in the dash so that's a plus too.

Reminds me of the guy who was a gynaecologist and wanted to become a mechanic; at college he was taught how to dismantle and rebuild an engine and when his exam was to be sat his examiners were amazed by how his precision was but mostly by the fact that he done the whole job through the exhaust.
