Not really sure ??

After 6 hours sitting around (I tried it every hour just incase) I tried it one last time and ... It started !??!

Couple of odd things still wrong - Fuel gauge read empty (0 miles range) but after a 12 mile drive home it said it was in the red and 25 miles range - From memory of where the gauge should be it is still reading low !
Also strangely, the right powered window now doesn't do auto up/down, and doesn't close on the key lock button press+hold.

? Fuel sender issues ?

No idea really

@Jase14 340mm mate, and honestly the old bumper went in the skip! It was so terribly bodged up by the guy who I asked to "fix" it.. it would of been unfair to sell or even give it away in that state

I had the resistor in stock but im pretty sure you can find them easily.

connect a wire to the brown/green wire behind the factory switch in the door, run it to the rear with another wire grounded to one of the dashboard mounting points behind the drivers end panel, connect to the switch and voila!

(i can’t remember which way around the ground and ground w/resistor go on the switch, if the unlock button locks it just swap them around)

if you use the switch i used then pin 2 connects to the brown/green then pins 1 & 4 are the ground/ ground w/resistor.

@petrev yeah that's a weird one ain't it...., mine has a habit of forgetting the one touch windows aswel, only on the driver's side tho...
Hopefully still all good for tatton, as our numbers this year seem to be.....on the low side

Yes - My driver's side window as well

Looking forward to Tatton (fingers crossed).
My garage man says to drive about a bit and see what happens ...

More people for Tatton, please !

Thanks Phil


Now, more info ...

What is your latching rocker used for, and have you got a wide shot of your switches, as I can't work out exactly where you have them ???


Cheers

Not much today mrs kept us busy walking around town, just some velcro for the bulkhead delete curtains

[petrev]

Drove a little 20 mile "test" shopping trip ...

Engine started just fine, ran fine and the right hand side window winder has reverted to normal i.e. auto up/down and closes on the key lock button

I installed a whole lot of shelving / timber work in the back...

The games begin again.... Just now with factory xenon's.....

It is not fun cutting open headlights that cost this much!

When they're not on the van.. I actually like the chrome but I know it will look out of place when they are on. So a bit of the gloss black/purple treatment was in order.
This time with colour changing leds hidden under the original drl lense

Still got another one to do
