Title: Auto electrician. Post by: 106usj on May 23, 2010, 10:30:38 AM Hello all.
I had my auto electrician round on saturday morning from 9am to 1pm. I now have the following issues fixed. * Head lamp/dipped now getting 12v and actually bright now./new spade connections fitted to all front light connections relays fitted to lighting wiring. * Engine earth fixed as it had a bad conection over heating damage at the fitting where it is bolted to the front panel. * Fuse box removed and disasembled/checked, found 4 loose spade connections due to vibration over the years inside the actual fuse box. * Rear o/s n/s indicators fixed also. *N/S front side light fixed / fault at back of fuse box where wires go into block connectors. * Best of all he fixed the most annoying problem of all, (the slow wipers) which are now running at least 3 times faster than before. * Also he replaced a pile of bad/ poorly done connections in the engine bay. We both were going to a local classic showin the afternoon so time was limited.I hope to get him back some time when he has more time to give wireing system a good check over for more faults.

Title: Re: Auto electrician. Post by: 106usj on May 27, 2010, 10:10:02 AM I think that yellow Avenger was well smart and you dont see many of these nowadays.
There was a lot more cars than i took pictures off,i just tried to take pictures of cars in the 131's age group/era This was a local meet in a small town but a huge collection of cars. Mainly i admit Fords but then thats the case at all shows, There was about 5/6 E type Jags old Austins/Morris Porsche's an A/C COBRA Landrovers. I did not see any Japaneese motors. There is a following of them in Scotland but they tend to be Datsun 250's etc. |
