SiC Posted March 13, 2017 Share Posted March 13, 2017 Looking at Autodata, there is no wiring diagram for the 106, but there is for the Saxo 1.5D. Apparently there should be a resistor in parallel with the light. Which looking at this picture, should be the one near the bulb: Given the past bodgery in the clocks, it might not still be connected either. Or even the lead from the alternator to the clocks may be broken too. Also as per other posters posts, it entirely possible that the alternator is kippered too. Here is the Saxo diagram. Almost certainly going to be the same wiring, but the pinout is probably different because French & PSA. Jim Bell 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim Bell Posted March 14, 2017 Author Share Posted March 14, 2017 Thanks Sic. That would make sense, even to me. Ill be taking up Mister Cobblers kind offer of ALL THE FIX so the clockset will be winging its way south for fettling. If anyone can shepherd all the electrons up the right pipes, itll be that man. After that, if we get a light and no charging, we go big with a new alternator and belt. If that doesnt work, suicide and Ill leaving it in my will to a shitter that I love the least. loserone, SiC, Dave_Q and 3 others 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jim Bell Posted March 20, 2017 Author Share Posted March 20, 2017 No. Myhermes still have the clocks. Hopefully theyll be delivered to Cobblers today. They tried on saturday, helpfully when the building was clearly shut. SiC and beko1987 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jim Bell Posted March 20, 2017 Author Share Posted March 20, 2017 I didnt say wind the mileage back to 27k!!!!! I said wind it back to whatever you feel is believable given the overal quality and condition of the automobile. So more like 7k.

greengartside Posted March 20, 2017 Share Posted March 20, 2017 Thats brilliant. I havent seen a parcel shelf with empty 6x9 holes since about 1998. Must be a 106 thing....mine was the same! Eddie Honda and KruJoe 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KruJoe Posted March 21, 2017 Share Posted March 21, 2017 My 106 (proper povvo, proper early 1.4D) this morning looks happy with those on. I bought it like that, but hiding underneath are the little "Graduate" centre caps: Dick Longbridge, Lacquer Peel, Rusty_Rocket and 4 others 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noel Tidybeard Posted March 21, 2017 Share Posted March 21, 2017 Gartside, are those wheel trims the originals for a P-reg? those wheel trims were the up market ones fitted to the mk1 xt which were gloss laquered (xr wheel trims were matt) these then became the trimps for the lower range of mk2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greengartside Posted March 23, 2017 Share Posted March 23, 2017 ^^ WHS. Yep, sadly the next owner of my 106 was less kind to it and all of the trims got frisbee'd off. He ran it into the ground and tried to advertise it in the state you see below on Bumtree for £250, with no M.o.T. Was so tempted to buy it back but the silly price put me off.

KruJoe Posted March 23, 2017 Share Posted March 23, 2017 Those Mk2 106's look utterly poverty-stricken with black bumpers, don't they? If I had one, I'd deffo do that upgrade. Mk1's look so much more honest somehow. overrun, BorniteIdentity and Jim Bell 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mk1's look so much more honest somehow. Yeah, the facelift doesn't hide the cars humble origins.I would have fitted the kit, but I never realised the rear arch profile would need to be drastically changed (hadn't thought too much about it) and didn't want to introduce rust to a very clean and trustworthy car that had been in known hands for the previous 8 years. The GTi seats made a huge difference, mind. I also fitted pop-out rear windows so I could have roof bars and the additional cycle carriers #not4scene Jim Bell and KruJoe 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
