my ABS light on the dash only comes on when the engine is cranked,The ABS works as it should,carried out a scanner test no faults in the system

What is programmable wipes and how do you program the wipers .What benefit is doing the programming Do you know what colour the wiring is for the alarm to be wire into

I seen this somewhere,so l though I try. When you lock the Corrado and hold the key over all the windows,sunroof closed For a 1993 car that is quite impressive Every day a school day :thumbleft:

Over the winter going to fit a alarm to the Corrado (1993 2.0 16v) Don’t know what alarm as yet,going to wire into central locking so need to know where about is the central locking wiring that the alarm will wire into,what colours are the wires Also fitting a dash camera,and tracker Any information welcome

Just put more petrol in the Corrado,(only 4 miles)Running a lot bettering .the best its ever run It’s a bit slippery out there at the minute.Quite surprised how quick it is now
-
Carried out full scan tonight comes back all clear on injection and ABS happy days
-
Yes 800 RPM just checking to see if anyone looking Engine runs spot on from cold,I think the snapped wiring is why it was cutting out
-
Got a in tank fuel pump fitted ,start engine idles at 11,000 RPM when getting warm Got a fault CLOSE THROTTLE POSITION SWITCH OPEN CIRCUIT,SHORT WITH POWER (sanp on scanner) Check the wiring to,the throttle switch,remove the tape from the wiring ,checked the wiring found the blue wire snapped,carried out repair and now starts and idles at 8,000 RPM So l think l have sorted the idle fault
-
So now the fuel tank is empty,clean out the tank and it’s dry,did find dirt in the bottom of the tank Just waiting for the pump to arrive
-
l have a 2.0 16 v which l am happy to have (even whit the bonnet open all the time but as this time doing wiring inside the car .the joys of classes cars)why previous owners do things right.sorry on a range Saturday night got beer inside me But it seams that lt that the is not a lot out there,only seams to be v6 that has a few issues
-
Removed the tank sender unit today and found a bit of sponge inside the fuel tank Have ordered a in tank fuel pump so hopefully all sorted ? Just got the gear linkage to do,Deep joy
-
My Corrado is a 2.0. 16 v so it is just above the gearbox,the previous owner did tell me about the interment starting fault and he had replaced all the sensors except the TDC sensor. Did you pull back the rubber cover and check the wiring condition
-
I have not read all the replies,so this may have been covered I did have a fault when engine hot, engine starts when it felt like it.l found the wining to the temperature switch where corroded and that’s why l had my starting faults,you can not see the wiring connection Pull on the wiring to the the temperature switch gently and see if wiring is secure
-
I work for a Renault dealership and the larger brake pipe union is the brake fluid feed from the brake master clylinder. Which allows more brake fluid though. But this may not be the case for VW.
-
Why when the alarm stops working do people just cut and shove the wiring out the way instead of Removeing the thing. The wiring for the radio come out of the dash about 18 inches,the alarm wiring still had a live feed to it. I am surprised it did not go on fire.Still have to sort the wiring on the n/s front yet
-
I am now onVW Corrado chat If anyone interested about the radio/window tint you can look there or l can repost any photos
-
Got mine from eBay,good match ,ok for paint chips
-
Cheers for the information,had a look found it under the brake master clylinder
