James, Things only breaking in 2s? Consider yourself lucky!
As for the door handle, exact same thing happened to me. A little plastic clip thing had broken and disengaged the lever from the locking mechanism - part number 937609 in rimmers catalogue (page 151). I'd put money on it being this part that has failed. I don't imagine that they'll be too expensive. Repairing the part isn't difficult either, this was the first job I did on my spit in days when only small, unimportant and cheap bits broken as opposed to now when large, important and expensive bits seem to break with increasingly annoying regularity... The most annoying bit about taking the interior trim off is getting the dowel out of the window winder and even more annoying getting it back in again afterwards. Removing the actual trim is a doddle. As for the lights - not sure on that one... cheers John http://www.spit1500.co.uk/ --- James Carruthers <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > 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.
