Long story after replacing Speedo yesterday all good
Refitted glove box today and checked out sat Nav rewire. Has past been adapted to ignition on relay as I guess when wired in proper it's been bricked in past Another job but back as it was it works ISH


Anyway.

While dash is apart I changed interior light bulbs to some led even got glovebox lighting up n working

Put if ignition on select reverse to check rear bulbs as they weren't on when speedo was out. All good.

But noticed rear tailgate I interior lights weren't on so back to front lock n unlock get suspension inactive bugger.

List not working I can see at moment that did this am

Suspension Inactive. No lights on controls
No gearchange display indicator
Parking sensors not working.

Tried steering reset code reset. Not yet done battery reset but I gues that's next

I was into night rallys then tarmac rallying in my Cortina mk1, then an old talbot sunbeam fitted with ford 2l pinto and box till kids came along, still have the Cortina
Duttons are quite nice you should get it going again:)

Mmmmm who doesn't love a good 'tina

My old man's finally getting round to sorting his MK2 1600e at moment. Took it apart for some welding just before my kids were born who are now 30+

To be fair metalwork wise he's 90% there and rest of it Is spread out the house all redone ready to go so not be long before it rolls again.
Might leave a space for me to get mine done lol

What engine is in the Dutton the wheels look Triumph
my cortina came back out from the garage after 20 years to take my eldest son to the school prom it needed a bit of work but not much its not mint any means bur it means i can drive it with out worrying about a stone chip or small scratch:D i just need to go everywhere via a fuel station:(
 
Know the feeling well lol.

All the running gear is triumph summat. Sadly Inc rear end swing axle (wheel tuck hmmm) but will see if I can lower or adapt it to a lesser degree.

On purchase had no motor as previously had a V8 wedged in it and cut a couple of braces.

Going back to original xflow. Have a 1300gt to rebuild going spare so seemed daft not too. Plus the mx5 engine and box I have as well is a bit tight without putting it 'right up front'
