Car now sold, and saved from the scrappage scheme, but before that the gremlins had gone. I found the wires at the top of the tail gate in poor condition with one broken. This was rejoined and self parking problem was cured - also alarm does not go off now although the door insecure light shows. Fus...

Apparently there is a repair kit for teh rusted pin for just over £20 so as Ted says I will drill down teh carrier and fit the pin - news when it's done - before we move hous...

Yikes, headlights, day running, immobiliser, alarm
My GT is upset cos it heard me talk about the scrappage scheme. I now have headlights permanently raised, no day running lights at all, first switch on the lighting gives me sidelights except front offside, no headlights when selected, but headlights and main beams when the flasher is used. Prior to...

Thank you for the thoughts ted clutch. I considered drilling down but would rather get a new/used carrier as I suspect the whole inside of the slider housing is rusted beyond reuse. At least I can use the GT for some contract work I have this week. If you have a carrier lying around with good slider...
