Thread: RESISTOR BLOCK help plz
Post: RE: RESISTOR BLOCK help plz
Just to check when my blowers stopped working. It was a small relay by the firebox. They're prone to failing and a cheap and easy fix :-).
As for the resistor block I'm not sure where that is. |

Post: RE: Cleaning the stock :-)
Aye the phase 1 is definitely better and even though it's much older is less hassle. The French should have left electrics well alone :-). |

Cheap zx up near Huddersfield. He says it's a bit of a rust box but for 150 it could be of interest to somebody.
I'd have it if I had the space but I have enough cars that won't run on my drive :-) |
