Poor and happy like me. Little traffic where I am, no VED on my 4 vehicles, low council tax, lots of space around me, better weather, what's not to like?

I have a rear door that locks and so on but doesn't turn the interior light on when opened and doesn't isolate the suspension either🤷

Correct. They refer to the Nanocom output rather than the physical CDL and Key switches themselves. Like I say, some sort of logic is being performed somewhere. Why the door ajar switch is required to work, I don't know. Years ago I seem to...

I find the easiest way is to close the latch using a srewdriver with the door still open. Then you can access the latch & wiring, but the BECM thinks the door is closed so will still lock & unlock without the mislock warnings.

I think you're better off staying in France. UK is going to the dogs.

That we saw 20yr ago.... 😳 No plans on returning either.. I'd rather be here with next to nothing in my pocket than return to the uk to having everything to hand... And the growing issues. My brother keeps offering me a nicely payed job with a...

All sorted auto elec here 10 min. Broken cable on can bus live was not triggering operation

Yes it was

Nice car tha A6 with the 3,0 engine.

Normally Closed and Normally Open.

I don't go to all that trouble, I take the door card off and measure the contact resistance of the NC & NO contacts of each micro switch at the connector. Anything above zero ohms is likely to cause a problem.

Right, I've had a look at both mine and MrGorsky's doors and there's a difference; I think I have a duff microswitch, even though the central locking works. From memory, more than anything else ... The lock actuator on the driver's side has 3...

I'd be batting it straight back to the shippers to find someone to repair. It's not your job to run around trying to fix what they broke. There are dealers in Nicosia and Limassol. Can you get it booked in to either?

Unfortunately motivation was lower then planned today but did both front cv boots, Rear droplinks, And dropped it off for mot and hope for the best,

aha AH4215K602BC

Fiddled with it. Got cold. Let it be.

plus those will actually work. The Wabco thing is for trucks, and we all know we are not one of them !!

Or a bus 🤔🫣

That's the nickname for mine as it does or used to carry all my family... Not so much now as the missus effed off to England and the kids, well... They do their own thing now.. So it's just my bus🤩 🤨

"valve processing with abrasive paste. On the right, unmachined seats and valves, on the left, seats and valves ground with coarse and fine abrasive paste. Good night" Looks to me like the right side have been done, not the left ?? Mi sembra...

you're right, sorry, I corrected it. it's time to go to sleep🤣🤣🤣

valve processing with abrasive paste. On the left, unmachined seats and valves, on the right, seats and valves ground with coarse and fine abrasive paste. Good night

Did the L322 benefit from the acupunture, or was that you ??

Send it to a dealer, they will likely replace the whole lot, but if they (the shippers) are paying why are you trying to fix it? they wont pay for your time J

40 years. I just have to keep mine alive for another 10 years. I think it is trying to kill me though so it might have to be my son that sees it happen.

The P38A is not OBD2 compliant, even though it has an OBD-like 16 pin socket. It is certainly way before CAN-BUS. You could probably work out the location of the WABCO ECU pins from RAVE or from the Nanocom manual from Black-Box solutions but I...

How is this relevant kiddo? 👍

Thars the one. So they then swapped to cylinders? 😵 Another use of materials to complicate things🤷

My D3 has the swinging weights.

Is it on the door top? Classic place for water ingress as well.... Well thought out that idea😶
