Electrical faults

Post by coogee »

Hi all.

I have a electrical problem with my minor. The engine starts fine but the fuel counter, indicators and wipers don’t work.
It was all working yesterday, but today I took out the windscreen washer tube and I changed the spark plugs, so I could of knocked something.


Thanks in advance
Phil

You got it in one, problem solved. :D
I took each fuse out and brushed all the terminals.

Thanks
Phil

I think he meant your reference to 'wee' which means something different down here.

If it doesn't work, you're not hitting it with a big enough hammer.

I found it very funny, good play on words.

For those who are confused

Wee in Scottish = small
Wee in toilet humour, to take a leak.

Sorted?

Oh yes - the penny has dropped ! Too subtle for me - and hadn't associated toilet humour with Minor Forum.
