Hi folks,
Been trying to sort out the electrics on my Surf for a few weeks now (actually, I've been sorting them since I bought it!)
Successes have been the Rear window electrics, back door lock, the speedo, central locking, aerial (sort of) and the glow plugs (found the problem, just not got round to fixing them yet).
I had to re-wire the radio harness as the idiot who fitted the last stereo had cut all the wires. I had an old Honda ISO adapter so I wired that into the harness, so that if I change the current radio, it'll be plug-n-play. Also the aerial power cable had been cut at the aerial, so I fixed that.
My questions however are.
1) The aerial is very noisy and doesn't quite go right up and it won't go down aithout me pushing it down. Is the aerial gubbed or will I get away with a new mast?
2) At the audio harness, I have 3 wires left. A green one which seems to be an earth, A brown wire and a White/Black wire. Anyone got any ideas what they are for?
Many thanks for all your help so far, some day maybe I'll be able to help someone out?
