c/l probs .

[magpie]

i turned my alarm off and the doors and boot unlocked,now i think at this stage the c/l relay has failed as nothing locks from the alarm but the alarm still arms up.Now i can't lock any of the doors or boot because the car appears to be deadlocked open if that makes any sense

how do i lock the car now

[Barx325i]

deadlocked open? that's a neat trick

have you done the red wire in the drivers door loom? Mine worked ok, then intermittently failed & the red wire had completly corroded in the multipin nylon plug - this came about shortly after a speaker fitment, so it gave me clue. soldered up and has been peachy ever since

I've got a C/L relay knocking about magpie! I bought the one off you, then found one in my spare wheel well

[magpie]

yeah just my luck i sold my last one then i need one myself most probably


i'll have a look at the bugger on sunday as today i'm converting a 320i into m20 b25 pooowah!

Wish me luck, I'm swapping my M40B18 out today!

[magpie]

how did it go ^ and what did you swap it with ?

[baggimodo]

Swapping like for like mate, have got the old one out, will probably have to wait till next weekend to fit the replacement as I need a water pipe (plastic part on below the inlet manifold)

It's been an experience, if nothing else!

Pacerpete's was an auto so the difference in the flywheel assembly is puzzling me a little. Once the clutch is removed would I just swap the flywheel onto the replacement?

i have loads of m40 hoses here including that plastic one you need

yes indeed ^ but use locktight or threadlock on the flywheel bolts when you put them back in

Interested in a trade for a C/L relay? PMSL!

Ah thanks mate, was getting a little worried about that!

Plus add a spigot bearing, or the gearbox will have short life!

if you test the relay in the boot by plugging it in to your car ands it works i'll swap ya for the plastic pipe
