I’m setting about replacing the coils on the H&H with Arnott airbags. I received the bags a few months ago and when I opened the boxes this am I find that they do not include the pins that are used to attach the bags to the body. The previous owner removed the bags and did not reset the pins.
Does anyone have a set of spare pins for these bags or any knowledge as to where I can get them?
Thanks GILBERTD.... I’ll have a look in workshop manual this pm and verify. Failing that, I have a wiring harness in one of me parts bins, that I can lay out and see where the various plugs are that could be causing a fault on pax side.
I thought somehow that by removing the plug under seat and hardwiring it, so to speak, would have resolved the issue. I’ll probably end up hard wiring all the connectors instead of leaving the plugs in place....
Why do we even care that an SRS and AIRBAG FAULT light are on? Probably the same reason that one of the bulbs in tailgate brake lamp setup being out drives us up the twist.....
Nanocom code 018... PAX AIRBAG CLEARED OPEN
Fault appeared recently. In trying to clear the problem I’ve hardwired the plug underneath the passenger side seat and still have the above fault. Unable to reset with NANOCOM.
Could this fault be related to a loose connection in the SRS plug above and behind glovebox?
Getting SRS red light on instrument cluster.
Able to reset with Nanocom but it appears to come back after passenger sits in seat.
Is this a coincidence, and if not, is there a “squat switch” in seat that senses pressure from an occupant?
There’s a window strip that runs the lower length of your front windshield. Often this will wear out and the clips that hold it into the lower window frame will perish. With that water coming down the windshield will get under the strip and find its way in through the holes where those clips attach to and run down to the floor.
I removed the window strip and bought a new one. When putting it back in I had to remove a number of the clip pieces from inside various holes. I also put a tiny dab of silicone on each hole. No more water on the floor.
Also, while you are at the above, I would suggest that you remove the windshield wipers, remove about 8 screws holding in three plastic covers. Remove these covers and you will probably discover a bunch of leaves and hazelnuts etc. clear them out.
At the backside of the longer piece of plastic you will notice where a mesh had been attached. This usually perishes. This is important to replace as it keeps the leaves and such from entering into the gulley below the windshield which can cause water to get into the vehicle. I cobbled some plastic mesh from a home supply place , removed the metal wiring that held in the old mesh and replaced it. While there I added a stripe of silicone on inner side of both air intakes, where the filters go in order to help guide water away from them.
Pain in the arse to have to remove so much to put the mesh in and to clear e gulley but well worth it.
As an aside, with so much water in the door way you should probably check the site plugs further forward along that loom to make sure they are not damp.
I just purchased and installed the controller as described in the link by BOLT on Sept 19th above.
Took all of 30 minutes to change out. Fixed the left blower motor issue.
I would say it was the best $10 I have ever spent but that would not do justice to the time I spent in Bangkok some years ago....
Did you try letting the misses out of the boot?
Cheers for that....
Anyone have a spare speed controller they would be interested in selling?
Finding a breakers yard in the Great State of Conneticut is like finding an ashtray on a bicycle. I found one on eBay for $69 but in the interim will hold off for a few days to see if someone here would have one that would be sure to be in working order on arrival.
When I have blower control on HI both blowers run full speed.
When I select a lower speed setting, the right motor adjusts accordingly but the left motor stays on high speed.
I have R&R the left blower motor, separated the housing from the motor, cleaned the relay with contact cleaner and cleaned the internal components but the issue still exists.
I have noted that the relay for the left blower tends to get hotter than the one for the right motor but cant think of any reason for this. I did note a hairline crack running from one of the left relays ports to another port and, with that in mind, I swapped the entire fuse panel with another vehicles panel and the high speed only mode still exists with the left fan motor.
Questions;
Probably worth $15,000 in my opinion. But as my wife says, what do I know?
@Bolt, what unicorn are you referring to that went for $45k?
Cheers
He knows enough about it to be asking 55 clams for it!!!
ABS and TC light will come on if one of the sensors has worn down or if there is corrosion on the half shaft where the sensors pick up their signal. Hopefully its the the sensors. They can be a mare to remove.... Blast them with rust remover or your favorite bolt loosener for a few days prior to removing. If you are replacing sensors do both of them.
That is a beautiful P38 mate. Congrats on winning that award.
Great to see one so well taken care of...
Why would one put L322 headlights on a P38?
That’s a fantastic testament to your ownership....
Well done..
Great pic Morat!!!!
Saw that.
Price range is fairly large, as you say.
Worth a punt if you can get one for south of 6 bills I think....
@OldShep56.... need to have a big garage as I spend most of my time there cos I usually end up on the wrong side of my misses’ points of view!
I haven't a clue as to its value. I had a correspondence with the folk at LR about the valuation but they seem to think that there is no way to put an appraisal to it. Person in question told me that Landrover had assumed this vehicle no longer existed. Apparently they had located 4 of the 6 originally built except for the one that was stolen back in 2002 and they had mine written off as being untraceable considering it was here stateside and there was no mention of it anywhere until last year when it resurfaced.
She’s insured for 50k but I can insure my dogs back leg for 100 grand so long as I’m willing to pay the monthly payments on it!!!
