Cheers I found the parts book pages that shows the actuators etc but not in situ so no clue as to where multiplug are I know I’m hopeless at anything computer oriented but there must of been something made showing what I’m after, I just want to check a wire ha. Towsey

Not the best pics but all I have, just to show some bits you'll come across If I was to do it again I'd do it the same way, it's easy apart from deciding where to cut the pipes but this worked for me, I drew lines to show where they were not that it matters Hth Towsey

Yes one is above the other but can’t remember which is which, but... After looking at different matrixes I THINK that my original had about 22 cores and this one has about 14, so that’s about 1/3 less cores so it’s hardly going to run more heat is it! Towsey

Hi, sorry I forgot to put up here how it went, I usually like to put results up to help people So...I went for the leaving the dash in method, and refit using coolant hose, and it just about went as follows -Removed centre console, floor heat vent, fuse box cover, black trim under fuse box...

Thanks for reply Never thought of that to be honest, where do I find a parts book? Cheers Towsey

Thanks for the reply but I don’t know him and wouldn’t know where to start msging him, getting pictures up on here is about my limit with technology :) Cheers Towsey

Well I fitted the new stat and found the one I removed to be a 78 degree so 10 degrees cooler than standard so fitted the new 88 and It has made a bit of difference to the heaters but they are still not to the temp they were, and the gauge still runs exactly where it was so...cooler stat was...

Hi all Il keep it simple Having a going on with a door lock on my d1 (already posted there aswell). I’m wanting, or needing, a wiring diagram that actually shows where the wires are routed in the car not just what wires go to what like the usual ones, basically I want to know where the wire...

Well the temp gauge gets up there but still takes longer than it used to so there maybe is a bit of a ‘stat issue but it all seems a bit too coincidental to me how it was fine and with really good heaters and went straight up to temp and the the gauge never moved, then the matrix went so I...

Well I thought it too much of a coincidence that the ‘stat goes the day after I did the matrix so I’ve bled it again (4 times now) and kept an eye on the level and the gauge is now rising to about where it used to but the blowers still aren’t very hot, in fact as I turn the blowers up it’s...

Yeah that’s about what I’m wanting to do, I thought about running a wire, well 2, direct from master to problem lock or even just give problem lock a quick squirt with power probe to try it when it’s playing up but didn’t want to over do it. It’s had 2 actuators and the mechanisms free as a...

Cheers That’s a bugger I just want to find where the wires to that door lock are :( Towsey

Thanks for that There is also a yellow wire from the drivers door lock barrel micro switch to the master. So does power go from the control unit to the master then back to the control unit which in turn splits it to all doors or does power go straight from the control unit to the master then...

Does anyone know of more informative wiring diagrams than Haynes that I can access please Cheers

Hope so but I’m waiting for it to be some rare 1/1000000 issue that basically ends up in a new engine after my recent few weeks with it Towsey

Yeah hopefully will get one in Monday and go from there My main concern was that it could be something more sinister Towsey

Thanks for replies It's not running cold just not to temp, it warms up as normal to a point then that's it and I'm only popping to the inlaws and maybe shooting so not going far. I also used to put things in front of rads in old escorts and fiestas but this has A/C but I might just rake the fan...

Cheers for that It’s been bled properly 3 times now to makes sure, when the gauge and blowers cooled off it was my first port of call, I would of thought one of the pipes would of been at the top of the matrix tho rather than both in the bottom half! I hope it’s just coincidentally a sticky...

Cheers I suppose sticky ‘stat would explain why there was pressure but then there wasn’t would it

Thank you I didn’t mention that I’ve just changed the matrix yesterday so there’s now 4 jubilee clips under there aswell as the 2 pipe clamps but all seems ok there when I’ve checked I should of looked at the ‘stat while I was checking the level in there Am I rite in thinking it’s not...
