yewcheck

Been thinking:scared: [ever so quite @ work!] I have twin pops and i relise i need to block up one side to carry out the check but any hints on what i could use. I have just come in from the warehouse where i cut out a circle of mdf, but looking at it now, here on my desk not sure this would actually work. Cant wait for work to pick up cause all i am thinking about is this car and how to go about sorting it out:wacko:

By doing what i done with the speaker does it make sense though....would this cause the problem i have? i cannot see it myself, but all ok before this happened! May have to call in an expert because this is above me, i can methodically disconnect every thing one by one but wouldn't no where to start if i found the fault to rectify it:confused1: Happy days......i might go back to looking at the blowing fault i still have may be easier:whistling: at least i know how to remove the engine etc and its onl nuts and bolts!

Not played with anything mate, only with the idea of torching it:glare: Na only kidding. Thought it would poss be a boost leak, and so emptied both my garages last night to see if i could find my detector..............and i did:clap: but this was 10.30pm and could not be arsed to try finding the leak!

Stu thanks again for your help. I still think it only happened when i pulled the speaker out of the box to get to screws to remove it. [had no problems previously] There was a little smoke from underneath the speaker, [not from speaker assumed it was where the wires were trapped under the speaker]and then all went dead!! The only things not working are interior light stereo aerial stuck up [to do with radio i guess] and centre console clock. Rear was/wipe works folding mirrors never worked. When i try to fit a fuse i can hear something in the door power up just before the fuse blows!!

John you can have mine mate, looks like i wont be going now!

Well just disconnected the main power supply to the ice system big bugger to, and still blew fuse................................i am now out of fuses 12 in all i have tried, threw process of elimination:cursing: I did a search and plenty of members have had the same problem, but no one posted the net result of there ongoing situation :confused1::confused1:

This is still happening:angry: Disconnected amps and tried to fit new fuse, as soon as i press the fuse into the fuse box it blows:angry: The fuse is for "room lamp" "auto door lock" any other thoughts guys??

Car hunting like elmer fud on steriods.....why:mad2:

I will do my best Stu:wink:

Its only a 1 day event anyway:tt2:

Replaced "o" rings with new ones not blowing now and also plugged in air con idle plug and even better:yes: [was told to leave unplugged due to leaving air con off engine] Just need to sort blowing fuse on ice and a good clean ready for japfest. Failed mot on wiper blade and headlamp to low:clap: So 12 months ticket on her now:scooter: Dave

If i can make it:sweatdrop: anybody meeting up on the way like last year?

?:sweatdrop::sweatdrop:

Found quite a bad leak from base of balance bar hopeful that this is the prob!!

I think it refers to the side of the house they sit in parliament!

As above heres to another year:cool3:

Thanks for the offer Bri, will talk to my mate who has got the car in the morning, if he requires it i will take you up on your offer....never used mine, got it about 5 years ago, could be anywhere!!!. Dave

Been thinking could this be something as simple as a hose flattened/caught where engine has been placed onto it in the engine bay? Did look at the pipes when i first found steering had failed but all look ok....tight but ok!

Perfect before Stu, thats what is weird about it!!. No haven't put on conzult yet i am a bit:scared: just in case i find something else not right:wacko::lol:

Well in a garage having the mot now so will let them sort [if they can:surrender:]

Thanks for the info Stu:wink:

Done looks all ok Done plenty of fluid and no air in system:wacko: Done been for a ride around and still nothing! So i guess i need a new rack:bored::no::wacko:

Not that bad a car really just getting a bit of bad luck:no: :gun_bandana::gun_bandana: Why would removing the engine alter/effect ptu??? Dave

yep with a flipping great fuse! and that is ok

Thanks for that.....will try that tomorrow! had a real tits full of this car, this last couple of days, need to walk away take a deep breath and start fresh:mad2: Stupid thing is thought getting the rear fogs would be easy and a break from my engine probs, how wrong i was:taz:
