Easily done... It's dangerous going into Toolstation

Reset the 4WS (again!).

It didn't work the first time: left me with what looked like a code 71 on the ABS which I don't have on my list (an Integra list I googled states "different diameter tire" ...). Also, the EML was on all the time.
The second attempt fixed the 4WS code, but not the steering. The other 2 lamps continued to misbehave.
I removed and re-inserted the paperclip before giving it the third go. It sorted it.

The lesson? Not sure. Perhaps the clip had only an intermittent contact for attempts 1 & 2. Weird, though.

Got back from Alton Towers... 400miles trip.

Prelude is defo a grand tourer..

So much comfy and didn't even get tired driving it. Only two things that were annoying was the CF bonnet rattle and one fog light bulb blew up somewhere.

You were in thinking about dinner instead of still working on it at 7pm in a vein hope of finishing it despite the pitch black and freezing cold?

One of the potentially explosive torches?

Its only the batteries that have the potetial to explode

That they both sit just to the rear of the head around the occipital lobe is I think the safety issue you have.....

pansy! Airbus have used the same tech in their planes for years..........

Too soon?
