time to update this
after the fiasco of the rear brakes, this is how the car was left for a couple of days:
didn't get any pics of it going back together, but it went really smoothly, and the pedal is back to normal, nice and firm, and a nice progressive feel to the brakes, down to about 3/4 of the pedal
over the next couple of days I tackled the wiring issues - lol it's French
the horn stopped working shortly after buying it, so off it came, can you see the problem?
contact rusted off...lol
old vs new and my trusty gunsons
next - the right side indicators kept going mental - sure sign of bad contacts / earths / bulbs, so off came the cluster -
you can just about see the blue crimp connectors through the hole, loom has been chopped to buggery, looks like to fit a 3rd brake light at some point, and whoever disconnected it has just left bare wires dangling around in contact with the shell :L
so cleaned them up and heatshrinked them to prevent any more problems,
only problem is that once I saw the shell I had to start cleaning Break out the shoe polish and fairy liquid!
grey trim -
Blaaaack
that's all for now, more updates next week
