I didn't even consider the fuse, as the hazzards are working, but found now that they appear to be separate circuits.
I'll check tomorrow. Thank you for reminding me of the obvious and simple things

Omega Electrical and Audio Help / Indicators not working
« on: 15 May 2008, 21:39:00 »
My indicators stopped working today. However, the hazzard lights are still working. Is that conclusively indicator relay, or can anything else be wrong?
The brake lights also stopped working, both faults occuring after towing a borrowed trailer with suspicious electronics

Crank sensor on X20XEV is at the underside of the engine, in the oil dipstick tube area. Only seen from below. If you have AC it is hidden behind the pump afaik, but is easily spotted from under the car if you don't have AC. The wireing goes along the cambelt cover.

I agree with TB, but if you really need one you may find one here:

That's exactly what I meant. So when removing it from a car that had it fitted, the effect is gone->higher emissions.

It says that the SAI's function has been replaced by something else. There's a big difference between replacing and removing.

At the cost of more pollution making the kit, extra energy to drive it, extra fuel to carry it around - I reckon it is a waste
Can you give a ball park estimate of the extra energy consumption and relate that energy consumption to the benefits of having cleaner air in a city centre? My second car (a mazda 323) doesn't have a secondary air system, and it's a huge difference between the two cars how fast the cats starts working.

Well, it was required to pass Euro2 emissions, so I guess something was done to still pass the later Euro emission codes.

AFAIK, at least the 2.2 hasn't got it. I'm a bit curious what replaced it though. Better engine management, or some pre-cat on the down tube or something?

QuoteAnd what's wrong about reducing the CO and HC emissions?It doesn't reduce CO(x) or HC though. It reduces NO(x)
Reducing CO and HC requires oxidizing conditions (as made by the secondary air). Reducing NOx requires reducing conditions (as made during the rich cycles at closed loop).

« on: 04 February 2009, 22:29:01 »
I can't understand why people are so afraid of EGR. It is inactive at WOT anyway, so it doesn't affect peak power. I addition to reducing NOx emissions, it should (at least in theory) increase efficiency and hence reduce fuel consumption.

QuoteAs its an S reg it will have the exact colour code on a plate on the chassis...bottom back of the drivers side door...Zxxx
Yup, Z293 which is as above 00- :-?
According to paints4u.com, that colour should be available from ~95.
