Hi, I'm about to stick my car through the first mot (with me), I've been trying to tidy all the wiring under the bonnet, and check every light/ switch etc.
my anti perc fan was disconnected, I've plugged it back in, traced back to the relay, and the radiator temp switch. But the wires going to the carb temperature switch are missing.
How can I find them without unwrapping a mile of electrical tape? Anyone know where they come out of the loom?
Q#2: I've been told its not a mot failure, but want it working anyway; as soon as I put a fuse into the rear wiper / rear washer socket it blows. I disconnected the switch in the dash, the pump in reservoir and the wiper motor, but the fuse still blows. Is there a place the wires usually split? I'm guessing maybe at the boot hinge left hand side. My theory is use a small battery (1.5v etc) and connect it to each wire and see if the volts show up on 2 wires at other end, or on earth. If anyone has a better idea it would be really helpful.
