Re: c70 fuse +15 keeps blowing

It can be like finding a needle in a haystack. Mine ended up being 6 wires that were fused together under the dash, very lucky the car didn't burn down :? . I was getting strange things like the dash dimmer switch was activating the central locking and the footwell courtesy light and the dimmer ...

Re: Pictures with questions on them :)

It has been a while since I've looked under mine, but picture four - isn't that where the lower torque mount is attached?

Re: C70 seat spring..... how to get back in?

My spring fell out too but the actual mount for the spring on the seat had broken. I used some cable ties to fix the issue, one end on the spring and another to a secure location on the seat. It took several tries to find the right length but now it works like a charm.

I believe if you took it to ...

Re: 96 850 interior light problem

Did you have any luck with this?

I'm pretty sure my issue is in the wiring loom that runs behind the dash (I removed wires from the connector block one by one testing for shorts), I went to remove my dash but I have a stripped bolt on my steering wheel so I can't remove it. I'm so frustrated at ...

Re: C70 hpt accelerates erratically

I have the same issue with my C70 at the moment too. I have a boost gauge in mine and it sits where it should (10-11psi) so it must be something to do with timing. I have an IPD HD TCV valve but it did the same thing with the stock one. It has been suggested to me that the O2 sensor might be the ...

Re: 96 850 interior light problem

I'm trying to sort out something similar on my C70 Coupe at the moment. Fuse 15 keeps blowing (at the fuse box there is 12v going in one side of the fuse and the other side is always grounded). I've disconnected all interior lighting and the thing still keeps blowing! I've narrowed it down to about ...

Re: Engine rpm hovers around 1300 sometimes

That happens on my 94 850 T5 aswell sometimes. In my case it is because the clutch gap on my aircon compressor is too large and the computer thinks it is on and therefore raises the rpms to compensate for it but infact it isn't on.
