Post by **Drax** » Tue Mar 26, 2019 12:59 pm

@newkid do you have the pole loom pics yet please?

went on little drive out with TazzmanianDevil94 at the weekend and another mate in a john cooper works mini

took a trip to lake Vernwy, then Bala and back to Llangollen - the drive included this hidden gem between the two lakes

i have to admit, my lude is immensly epic!!!!

f*ck me it shifts soooOOO well. the grin i had made my cheekbones hurt...
Rob in the mini said the lude "sounds like Hell"

found this beaut at the lunch stop as well

cheers matey!! great to see you at JDM North on Sunday

your lude looked brilliant!

on a side note, ive had an ABS & 4WS error for ages ive ignored lol finally got the blink code the other day;
4WS - 3 long & 5 short
ABS - 4 short & 8 short

both indicate an issue with the rear left (nearside) speed sensor so i need to look at this and hopefully kill two issues with one fix

cheers matey

she's truly epic, can't get enough of her - had to calm down lately and save fuel

Dinas Mawddwy is the main road slightly further south between Aberangel and Dolgellau, this road is hidden between Lake Vernwy and Bala

managed to fix these two error lights yesterday, I cleaned the sensor but that made no difference so I had a spare and (after a lot of swearing due to rusty bolts and an awkward position for Honda to put the wiring clip) swapped them over so both lights have now gone out

@Drax sorry for slow response bud

Switch, 4 wires

This then splits into 2 lots of 2

1 lot of the 2 is earth and ignition live

The other 1 goes through the bulkhead, uses a rubber grommet

That then plugs into 1 of the plugs on the parking pole

Finally the other plug on parking pole plugs into sidelights so it lights up green at night when up
