Re: Can anyone tell me...?

Sorry for late reply, bit limited on Internet... Anyways, I have bought another fusebox to put in. Interesting that it's the same pin that burns out. Also got a relay with the "new" fusebox. We built the pin in the old box back up with solder, which stopped my ignition going (started to cut out if I...

Re: Can anyone tell me...?

Ahh, sorry :( Can anyone move this post? It's not on the fuse side, it's on the back where everything from the dash plugs in. The plug is a brown one and I believe the wire was yellow

Can anyone tell me...?

What is pin 48 on the back of the fusebox for 1.7? Mine has melted, and since then, my lights are stuck on normal beam on settings 0, 1 and 2!

Re: My 1.7 that I waited so long for!

Great car, shame these problems have cropped up! I broke the indicator stalk bracket, but that has since been fixed. When that broke, I suddenly had problems where if I tried to use full beams, the car would switch off and then had no ignition! Stopped the cutting out, but left with the lights issue...

My 1.7 that I waited so long for!

Ok, I've had it since March 2015, but waited so long for one... May I introduce my 1989, 37,000 mile, 1.7 340 GL! :D

Unfortunately, not been going so great with the electronics at the minute (lights stuck on dipped beam on settings 0, 1 and 2!), but hopefully we'll get that sorted!

Help with vacuum pipe/servo seal.

Hi guys, I'm new here, but need some help. I have an 1989 340 1.7 and after some brake difficulties yesterday, it appears that I need some vacuum pipe and the little rubber seal where the vacuum pipe goes into the servo. Would anyone know where I can source these or the dimensions of them? I haven't...
