Hey all,
Help/advice on any of these matters would be appriciated - im getting into working on cars and completing work myself...but am still a bit of a n00b!
Firstly, the interior light no longer illuminates when the passenger door opens - ive checked the depression swith and the plugs seem to be in correctly. The light works when the drivers side is open so there is nothing wrong with the light. Is each door ran on a seperate fuse? Do i need to replace the plunger switch?
Secondly, my windscreen wash jets seem to have stopped working! I have isolated the problem to be close to the liquid holder, i have checked all visible tubes anbd they are fine. When i pull tjhe lever for the jets i hear them trying to engage but i think there may be a blockage. The wash is full and there seems to be no sign of a leakage. I would check closer to the tank but all the tubes are hidden under the fuse box is there an easy solution to this or will it require removing parts and replacing tubing? If that is the problem.
Thirdly (im a pain arnt i ) my sunroof seems to leak on occasions - its a manual, no electric version. Could it need a new rubber strip around the outside?
Finally, the car does not currently have central locking - i am intending to fit this have no yet decided whether to just go for remote locking or standard and wire it in to an alarm! However for either method i am willing to attempt to fit it myself. Is this advisable? Ive heard its pretty simple. If so could i please have some instructions upon how to do so - including removing the door panel!
Thanks alot
