    I have used the Rage Evolution type of blades,to cut boarding used around the bank cash machines .... legitimately....it is 32mm ply,sheathed both sides with a thin,bonded layer of stainless steel sheet. It coped fairly easily,but the waste material is brutal :( For the perfect job on the OP's...

    (Please) How to remove these wires? - Mercedes Sprinter 2019

    Hi,these automotive connectors,are in the main,single use,and do not lend themselves to refurbing,easily. You can usually research the type of connector,and just make it a re-fitting exercise. Sometimes the silicone seals will need removing,where the wires enter,and a fine hook-pick will be...

    How to make a car heater blower motor fan turn in the opposite direction

    Hi,if that signal wire,is a signal wire,and nothing else,the only two wires left,are the power and ground wires. In a normal fan motor,swapping these wires,would reverse the direction of your motor. The only two reasons for this not to occur,would be either some other electrical or mechanical...

    How to make a car heater blower motor fan turn in the opposite direction

    Hi,if the small wire is indeed a signal wire,then swapping the ground/power,should reverse the fans DOT. The only problem may be any damage caused during the previous swapping. You could probably test the fan using a spare battery and two wires,just ensure a fuse of some sort,10A maybe,to limit...

    need some advice re wiring up electric gates

    Hi,from a safety point of view,i can and will,say that your ground/earth connections,should be all grouped together.

    1992 Pontiac Firebird won't crank, no power to starter enable relay, no security light, temperature gauge fluttering

    Hi,so GM have designed an anti-theft system,which can be bypassed using a .4 to 12 K Ohm pot? That must have been an easy 15 minute decision,in R&D,then an early lunch ....:oops: I would be concentrating on a voltage/grounding/connection type fault,then work forwards from there.

    VW Transporter questions

    Hi, i would be careful,tapping in to the loom,as certain additions of load,will be seen on that vehicle as a fault. I would use the opportunity of having any headlining or roof accessories opened,to check there are no water leaks,as these can cause issues,on that marque.
