1200 bandit

Most scanners will only read cars from 1996 on If you can get hold of a sanp on scanner it will read it

Ok got a Hawk alarm (will find out if any good when l fit it) Found some information about the wiring on here Will post on here the findings if any good

Looking very nice indeed

Well got the strut brace dos not fit, hits the header tank and the brake master cylinder,says it is for a vw golf ect. The company that sold the brace is excellent customer service no problem with them refunding the money If you have a strut brace fitted can you post some photos to see how it’s fitted Cheers

If you remove the wiring block from sensors and hold the wiring block and gently pull on the wiring to check the wiring is secure inside the wiring block,Have you a scanner to carry checks l had this on my Corrado 2.0 he previous owner had fitted lots of sensors because of a running fault. You can pull the rubber boot back and check the wiring You can also put a jump lead from earth side of the battery to a good earth on the engine this will earth the battery to engine

Just checked out this link ,excellent information on here,it’s a must read if you are thinking of going this way.thanks for the information. If anyone who has fitted a alarm and had problems please post

Just got the strut brace from eBay £40.00 all in Look at the rear brace above that’s look good May be getting one of those in a couple of months What is the cost of a rear brace

Cheers for the reply, Can you tell me how thick the top strut tower is as l was thinking of tapping the tower to secure the brace

Thinking of getting a Strut Tower Bar Brace the bar that goes from top mount to top mount Are they any good,do they make much difference,how does the bar secure to the top mounts Has anyone fitted this type of brace bar. Again any information welcome thanks in advance

Thanks for the reply,Any information is more than welcome.I think l tryed the above wiring and got no live feed, but l was jammed in a small spot on the garage,so wil check when l pull the Corrado out of the garage cheers

Thanks Jim I was thinking of wiring the dash camera into the live feed of the radio but unsure if it will affect the radio in some way Dash camera sorted,now looking for where the alarm wiring go’s in to the central locking I can put the tracker somewhere under the bonnet as it is waterproof as it for a motorcycle

OK looking to fit a alarm,tracker,dash camera Pulled the centre dash,console out ,now looking for a live wiring to power the the above things ,do not what to from battery,also what is the correct wiring to go into for the central locking for a alarm

That’s one nice looking Corrado,has anyone got it

Less than a 1,000 miles in 6 1/2 years.had this Corrado for 8 mouths l have covered 500 miles

Just an update Went out in the Corrado on Saturday,covered about 15 miles all good the fuel is NOT noisy now, Get a bit more comfortable in the Corrado,although it has always got me home so can be all bad

Also check your wiring,l have had a few problems with engine starting,cutting out dew to wiring being snapped,you will not see the wires snapped as they snap inside and the cover of the wiring looks ok. Hope that makes sense

Carried checks on my Corrado 2.0 16 v .found the wiring under the rubber cover that goes to the temperature switch had fell off,also found the wiring to the throttle body ( 2 out of the 3 wires was snapped) repair the wiring and now starts,runs spot on.

Thanks for the reply will remove the door trim and recheck,

So go for a drive in the Corrado today as just replaced the in tank fuel pump.runs spot on Found the passenger window jamming on the way down.removed the door trim,found window reg jamming on the wiring,air pipe.Wiring had not been secured and found snapped wiring Repair and secured the wiring When locking the car from the passenger side all locks work,when lock from drivers side boot,petrol flap,drives door locks ,but the passenger side will not lock ,unlock The locking motor is working on the passenger side with the key When locking /unlocking the car the air pump runs for about 30 seconds stop then runs again for another 30 seconds
