Another Laser...

This is my 1.6 Laser - my daily runner, so I've focused on getting the bodywork and mechanicals straight. Nothing special under the bonnet (or anywhere else for that matter :) ). I'm a member of the South East Ford Owners Club (www.sefoc.co.uk) and will be on the SEFOC stand at the KM Motoring Pagea...

Thanks - I'll give it a try. I guess the safer option would be to ground it first, then try the positive....

Let you know how it goes

Water Temp Guage has died - please help

It's on a Mk III Capri. Was fine until I started up this morning, and ... nothing. I guess it's probably an electrical fault, but that's not my game.

Can anyone give me a basic 123 on how to isolate the fault? The rest of the dash is OK....

Thanks a lot everyone

Singles were enough for me. I got white LEDs, and the colouring in the dials gives out a blue/green colour....I wouldn't get coloured bulbs in the first place....

Good luck!

Hello

I got mine here: https://www.autobulbsdirect.co.uk/home.php?cat=611

Bright as you like (can see them in the daytime!) - the only thing is that the dimmer doesn't work, but a small price to pay IMO.

MkIII Tilt/Slide sunroof seal

Hello all

I've ordered a brand new sunroof seal from East Kent Trim (http://www.classiccar-trim.com/). Anyone know if it's possible to fit without completely removing the sunroof....?
Thanks

That dim and dingy Capri instrument panel

Hi Folks. A quick question. I know the instrument cluster bulbs (Mk 3) can be replaced with LEDs (brighter, don't run hot, straight swap). Can anyone confirm that these (please see link) are the right ones, or give me a pointer? http://www.ultraleds.co.uk/product_info.php?products_id=525 Thanks a lo...
