That's great, thanks - now Ive done that the only thing is the mirror doesnt want to pull off from the door for some reason. Any ideas? This is turning out more of a job than i anticipated!!!!

Omega General Help / Door Mirrors

« on: 13 May 2014, 19:02:09 »

Hi - my nearside door mirror was smashed by a kindly, passing, anonymous idiot  and now needs replacing. How do I do it? I've got the internal trim off but havent figured out how to get the external black trim off without breaking it. I have removed the bolt and screw located under the interior black trim.

Omega General Help / Halfords Discount

Just wondering whether Halfords run a discount scheme for members of OOF? Years ago they did I think for the MGOC as I recall. Anyone know?

Omega Electrical and Audio Help / Re: Blown fuse ?

« on: 19 January 2009, 17:19:40 »

Hi - just updating on my post from yesterday - on my facelift 2.2 petrol I have found that Fuse 7 actually controls these lights. As soon as I replaced it - it had blown for n apparent reason - everything worked fine.

Thanks to all the guys in ICE and Omega Electrical Forum - No Internal Lighting who solved the problem for me.

Best update your operating manual supplied with the car as mine, like everyone else's, showed it as controlling electric windows, which it patently didn't. Wonder what else this fuse controls?

I have had exactly the same problem and have checked everything I can think of. The only thing I was wondering was whether the timer which shuts off the interior or boot lights after a period of time to avoid draining the battery was faulty and if so, where it is?

I too can get only between 17-20 mpg on urban short distance but have found keeping tyre pressures at around 30psi helps (which is standard anyway) and not clogging it before the engine is warm does genuinely help.

I get 30-32 on motorways under as long as I stay under a ton.

Having been wandering around the forums as I have been this afternoon instead of working it's great to see some of the problems I've encountered also experienced by others, but more importantly, how to fix them! This is my 3rd Omega and I can't believe I've only just found this forum!!! DOH!

Only been a member 24 hours and the forum has already saved me a visit to the garage to try and sort a niggling electrical problem by simply directing me to Halfords to get a new fuse!

Thanks again guys!
