Looks loads better, the older I get, the more I hate single headlight, badgeless grilles.

Thanks guys, I'll try and have a go at them tomorrow, I don't have a multimetre and I've never used one before

Learn. Always handy for fault finding.

Set it to the     ->+  symbol.

The Amazon model doesn't have a buzzer to signal continuity, just watch the numbers on the display.

If it stays on 1 then no continuity = broken circuit.

If the numbers change - indicating resistance - then circuit is good.

Another one back into the OEM Fold!!!!

Whoop Whoop......

You are going to have to learn a whole new lot of skills owning a 20 year old car - at least you have joined the proper forum for getting good advice and not a verbal kicking for wanting to learn new stuff....

Multimeter is a very valuable tool when dealing with these old ladies... Nothing like getting wired in...

Especially when you've had Steve Wonder working on the wiring!!!!

Hehe, I do want to learn, I know nothing about mechanics and I'm just trying to pick it up as I go along.  I bought the Haynes Modifying Golf Guide as the lad who last had my car must have followed every page of it, I'm using that and the Haynes restoration manual to try and take it back to OEM, although I might keep a couple of wee mods on it

I'm very impressed with the forum, some brilliant cars on it, it's given me a lot to aim for, I just wish I had the money to do it
