Guess whos back???? MEEEEEEEE!!!! LOL And guess what? We are back to the same issue from 4 years ago! HAHAHAHA Everything has been great with the bypass I did 4 years ago, but this time I decided to install an alarm and everything went well, until I closed the drivers door. For some reason...

Hey Bat, The cables were already tied up and plugs were hardly connected. Unfortunately there was no difference, I believe the regulator is probably gone. ?

That's what I like about this Forum Chris, some of you guys are helpful at a point that I can't even describe. That is no silly or bad intentionally replies. Thank you for that. I think you got a point there, and I agree with you. I am between: Do I fix the original one or buy a upgrade one...

I will do that tomorrow and see how it goes... If I need to replace the alternator, I will probably upgrade it, as I use the car mostly for camping, it would help my 12v system a lot. We have a lot of options in Australia for alternators at 140amps, but I saw this one here that got my...

Thanks Chris! Do you know what is that bottom right light for?

I hope it is only gonna last during Xmas period LOL!

Hey All, Thanks heaps for all the answers! For some reason I did not get notified and just saw it. Just to add to the point: - I have dual battery system (CTek) and I have a good gauge in my dash that shows me everything about my auxiliary battery. I monitored it, and it is always sitting at...

Hi all, My 1HZ 1991 is showing me few lights when I am driving and I would like to ask if anyone has experienced this before: It started about 2 years ago, but only happened when I was driving on full sunlight. The reason I say that is because I noticed that when I drove past a shade of...

Sorry guys, I got a bit confused now... If I have a fuse in line on every single positive cables coming out of the battery, why and how would I install something like that? In my head it would be a double fused installation. no?

Uhmmm... I got what you mean and I do agree with you! Do you have any example of it? I cannot really picture it in my mind how to do it. I am using 6 gauge cables for the CTECK, the red cable you see going to the front is my LED bar.

Thank you very much mate! I will be sincere, it took me over 3 months to find the car I was looking for. I got an airplane to see this car (2x), and drove it back home (about 1000km). But I was a happy kid! There still some things to do, but nothing major. It has 380k km on the clock but still...

Where did you buy the red runners?

Sorry I could not organize the pictures as I wanted, not sure how :/ This is the CTEK D250SA I am using with my 2x150w solar panels from ebay that gives me about 12A in a good sunny day. I tilted my 2nd solar panel after my trip to Fraser island as I felt the rooftop tent was dragging way...

You in the snow, and I am dealing with almost 40 degrees in Australia! hahahaha

Well guys, After almost 2 months I decided to give up and I ended-up putting a new hire from the fuse box to the lights instead of try to find the actual problem. It was going to cost me over $500 to fix it and I did myself for $0 (But 2 hours of labour) I still have the issue now and then...

It is very frustrating, the only place I haven't check yet is inside the passenger's door. Do you think I could find anything in it? All the other places have been check, moved, turned, bent etc. It flashes sometimes, but just when I m driving the car. never happened with me moving the wires...

Hi Guys, I cannot really find the J3 conector. I found a similar one, but a bit bigger. I have tried my best to find out the issue, but my knowledge with electrical stuff is very short. This are the ones I could find: This one behind the fuse box in the drivers side. This one in the...

I have before just in case, but all the fuses are still fine.

Starting NOW! hahahaha lets see if I can find it before the end of the year! hahahahh

Okay guys, Today I went to the wreckers, got some parts I needed for the car. Couple of door light courtesy switches, and a seat to get some material to fix my seat which is ripped. I fixed all the courtesy lights in the car, took some apart and removed the rusty in it. Everything was fine...

I will also try to remove the cigarette lighter and find out why it does not work. As you guys mentioned, everything is pretty much connected together and when something fails, other parts can stop working.

Guys, Thanks a lot for the messages! I didn't have any chance to have a look at it still. I will be off tomorrow and that will be the first thing to do in the morning. However, thinking about what ByronJ said: It makes sense, because it was when I smashed the door (Closing it) that...

Yeah, I think it is original. The guy who I bought the car from was very conservative.

1, did any of the courtesy lights flash? No, they all kept still 2, did the clock lose its memory? Yes, it did lost the memory twice 3, is there another diagram in the book that shows the radio connection? Yes, attached 4, can you place a maximum load on your cigarette lighter and see if the...

here is the video, so you have an idea of how things happened.

Well guys, Something very interesting happened today. I went to the car and tried to find all the possible earths in the car. Half way through my desire to give up and get a cold beer, I start realizing that some doors were working when the dome light was on "door" and the clock would stay...

Hello! The windscreen is pretty good, although it is an old car, the seals are still in good condition. I have checked the dome fuse (Actually all of them) and they seemed fine. I changed the Dome one which is a 10AMP fuse. I will try to check the earth today after work, if not, tomorrow in my...

You are a legend! Thanks a lot! I can already see how much I will learn in this forum!

I removed the glove box today in the morning and tried to understand which wire comes from where and goes to what. I will try to find the earth cable tomorrow, hopefully it will be a simple job. I took the car to a electrician when the first problem started and he charged me au$900 for the job...

I have bought the car a month ago, so I still finding some issues here and there, you know. My electrical knowledge is very short, but I can do some pieces and bits, I will try to find the earths and see if I can see any dodgy connections or something loose. Usually the earths for radio are...
