One thing Ive learnt since having the spit is that everything happens (i.e. breaks) in two's.
Today's darstadly duo - Inside Door Handle and Brake Pedal Light connection Getting trapped inside a car isn't my idea of fun - I considered all the possibilities - clambering over to the passenger side and getting out that way - putting the top down - unzipping the rear window and getting out - getting out the side windows - and then I realised that I could just put down the window and open it from the outside. At first it didnt work - but that was just because I wasn't pulling hard enough (surprising how much force it takes when you're on the inside) So the inside handle is broken - I havent investigated it yet - I don't want to pull off the lining until I have some time to get it back on. Basically the inside handle is loose. I hope itll be obvious when I get to it. Then today whilst travelling home - some guy behind me is making hand jestures at me pointing at the rear - I didn't think that much of it until I got home (I was only a minute away) - so I thought I'd check the rear - all fine and dandy - the idea of the brake lights dawned on me - after some frantic bulb swapping and wiggling (and handily the Haynes manual showed me that I was missing plastic protector covers - no wonder Im fiddling about with them the whole time - all the stuff in the back of my car (just in case I break down - the usual stuff strobescope and rpm meters :) ) gets thrown about and hits the bulb holders) No joy their though - so anyway - eventually after some bending even the circ du solei (sp?) would be proud of I discover that the 2 cables (green) that connect to the brake pedal are in mid air. I worked out that their the cables by touching them together. But where do they go? At the moment I can see: 2 green cables A white plastic box 1 inch square - out of which theres a cylindrical thing that moves in and out on the pedal (not sprung as I would have thought though) Im guessing the cylinder works out if the brake pedal is pressed - but I can't work out where the 2 green cables (with spade connectors on?) go - Im guessing in the box - but there doesn't look like corresponding connectors. Am I missing something that goes in between? ttfn, James 1977 Pimento Red Spit /// [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list /// Send admin requests to [EMAIL PROTECTED] /// or try http://www.team.net/cgi-bin/majorcool /// Send list postings to [EMAIL PROTECTED] /// Edit your replies!
