Black Phase 2 dturbo. (4waydiablos old car)

[adamm306]

Most people know this car its been around a bit

not a major project really just restore it to its former glory

First of all i started off by putting all the interior back in as it was stripped out completely



alot warmer and quiet/comfier now


also started removing all the stickers from the rear window (had a bit of trouble with the monster "M" so will be removing that shortly and also put some standard P2 rear lights back on it



random pic




Only problems I knew about and have so far are as follows so any advice appreciated


Blower motor doesnt work on any setting phil changed the blower motor but still nothing

rear desmister doesnt seem to work (elements seem good) switch lights up and i hear a click

heating doesnt work (assuming matrix although i cant see anything in the bay to look like its been bypassed to a strange one)

passenger window doesnt work.. switch has been eliminated so im guessing drivers door loom.

Thanks

If you had the time and weather before scrapping the silver one, I would (if I were you) strip out the dash and replace the whole blower unit and matrix. As there seems to be a fault with this one.

[adamm306]

Im pretty sure the matrix on an air con model is different to non ac though? i am going to take the components of the blower motor though

[PUGNUT_XS]

Have you tried replacing the variable resistor?. to get to it remove the scuttle panel on the rhf as if you were standing infront of the car, Mine is non AC but if its AC remove the pollen filter and you should be able to see it. Non AC there is a vent.

Hope this is of some help.

I have the same problem with the rear demister too.

PS The dash is a MOFO to get out

[adamm306]

what does the resistor look like? ill have a go as it all works on my other car so ill swap them over

---

if its any help the lights on the heater controls dont work either if thats controlled by the same fuse? or that could be unrelated and the bulbs anyone know which fuse it uses?

[Matt]

Hope this stays as epic. This car has been through hell of a lot! Wish I had the cash to buy it at the time

[adamm306]

You're not wrong mate would of been a shame to see it broken just needs a little bit of TLC to restore her to its former glory.

after closer inspection the ac light and other light dont seem to do anything either as well as heater lights could this be the fuse? if so which fuse is it

[Matt]

IMO, I'd replace all the heater stuff, the control panel, blower motor, matrix. Think phill checked all the fuses and relays.

[adamm306]

Yeah I believe he changed the motor itself but didnt check much else (from what he told me anyway) ill have a fiddle with the plug and check fuses relays just incase then see what happens

[Matt]

Check there's power to the motor, I don't know how far Phil went with trying to fix it.




Also. Just for me, change the thread title, to ph2 dturbo (4waydiablos old car) haha
I keep losing this thread already hahaha

[adamm306]

Yea ill investigate and i dont know how to change therad titles feel free to change it for me lol

[Matt]

Haha I will change it too something interesting.... Haha

Be easy to try and diagnose what's wrong after seeing if power is getting to it I think it could be a dodgy motor, replaced with dodgy motor

[ginge191]

Be interesting to see how this turns out! keep it alive!

What happened to your silver DT?

[adamm306]

Nothing mate turbo was fubar'd on it had a replacement but never got round to sorting it out its currently sat outside my dads feeling sorry for itself stripped of the entire interior and missing various engine parts waiting to be weighed in

will get on the case of the heater motor and wednesday might have a go at sorting the passenger side window while im at it

[ginge191]

Well, if you get it running or wanna change the turbo, holla could make your money back!

Good luck with the project

[adamm306]

cheers, and yeah that was the plan we'll see what happens

[Matt]

Ill be back over to mainland next week. Gimme a bell if you need a hand

[adamm306]

Thanks.. may need some in near future if door loom needs fixing up im terrible with wires

[Matt]

Door looms are fun! Haha







Seriously.... Don't call me for door looms, I'd rather cut my fingers off haha

[adamm306]

heater matrix ?

[Matt]

More than happy for that! Getting the dash out is easy! Just Cba with fiddley wires

[adamm306]

Sweeet didnt want to attempt it on my own im terrible at losing screws and stuff and breaking bits of plastic.

One thing at a time first though gonna need the blower working before heating

[Matt]

Take the dash out and do the lot. We'll make a day of it. Supply the bacon and I'm sure I can rope in a few others

[Pompey306mark]

Come to mine nice drive off the road plenty of room. Plus me and rich will be here most likely so can lend a hand.

[adamm306]

yea alright sounds good ill let you know when i get hold of a AC matrix and well take it from there

[adamm306]

Just out of curiosity I checked the relay and found this



Was pretty much stuck in there took afair pull to get out.

Looks pretty f*cked to me will grab another one tomorrow and see if blower works

[Dum-Dum]

Looks f*cked lol.

I have a bit of a soft spot for this car but it definitely needs a big turbo back on it.

[PUGNUT_XS]

This is a pic of the resistor and one of the new heater matrix i got from ecp. Not sure if the AC one is different.

Hope this is of some help.

[ozonehostile]

When I had the dash out of mine to swap heater blowers I'm fairly sure that the heater matrix itself is the same for aircon and non aircon models, the only difference is the heater unit that it's mounted in

[adamm306]

quote doesnt seem to be working but

@ dum yeah i have a T25 on a manifold ready to bolt on in my shed but still not sure weather to go ahead with it or not it already has a 11mm and gov mod so should go well. just not entirely confident of getting it on myself and trying to set it up

@ pug nut i think that the non-ac models use a valeo type one and the ac use a BEHR i think the connector pipes slightly differ from the two

@ ozone yea i think they are slightly different shape i read a post from cwspellowe on another forum where they had sent him the wrong one and it didnt fit
