i was looking through auto trader and found this for £200 went and took a look looked alright so went for it
got it recovered to work today

best get started on this list will keep this updated

Headlight ordered from local motorfactors, should be here tomorrow new drivers sill panel ordered read abs with diagnostics came back as front right speed sensor open/short circuit​

Will be a hall effect sensor, unlikely but not impossible its failed, I'd check for broken/loose wiring first. Check for voltage fluctuations when you spin the hub (with disc in place) or pull the sensor away and wave something ferrous like a small bolt in front of it

Ill priice. A sensor if its cheap ill just buy one trade discount and what not, thank andy

Remember that breaks in the wiring can be in the loom not just in the sensor, diagnosis with a multimeter is ALWAYS the best route to take first

 

[Belly93]

How do i check the loom?

If the break is in the sensor you don't have to, but a simple continuity check isn't a bad bet (check resistance in the wires)

 

[Belly93]

I see thanks andy

 

[Belly93]

Got no continuity but unsure if the light came back on

 

[Belly93]

new headlight fitted now,

interior shot

drivers seat could do with a repair might see if i can find a replacement

part of the mot failure

looked at it from the outside of the wheel arch and the bit in middle was rotten too so out it came,

i attempted to weld it back in looks **** but it holds so not too bothered lol

bonus piccy

Will work for your sensor too. Is that no continuity in the loom you say?

in the sensor sorry i bought a decent multimeter today from snap on seeing as i use one more than i realise i thought why not

 

[Belly93]

how does that work for the abs sensor as it only has 2 wires and my multimeter papers say not to test continuity while passing current

 

[skymera]

1.6? Is it the GA engine ?

You're testing voltage. It probably earths through the mounting point so you have only a supply and signal wire...
Only thing REALLY to watch out for is that you don't try measure the voltage in current mode, as you'll short through the meter and cook it I've seen a multimeter that was shorted accross a 240v supply. It exploded. The bloke went to hospital with burns...

[h701micra]

I see what you mean now
Have a good crack at it with those settings and see how it turns out

 

[Belly93]

 

[Chogy]

if you use a little bit of thinners on a cloth/ brush you can get that black sealant smooth.

 

[Belly93]

im not assed painting it in the morning lad need to weld a patch on the oustide next
dude what you doing with the mera gti seats?

 

[Chogy]

there going in my micra, but me dad bought another one for himself, ill ask him what hes doin with his in the morning

 

[Belly93]

just my drivers seat is proper worn im in no rush mate was just wondering

 

[Belly93]

got the outside patch welded on just waiting on parts atm :/ and funds

Nice man, I feel your pain with the rust, it's exactly where mine had gone although a lot worse than yours.





Check around the rear seat belt bolts, as there rotted on mine as well



the inner sill, the sills themselves and the chassis legs would be another place to check as well. I am only showing you photos and giving you pointers as this is what has gone on mine.

BUT - a worthy upgrade to a Micra, once fixed, and you start doing bits to them, it will be a really good car and they look really good in silver too. I had a 1.0 k11 white 3dr before this Here is a photo of mine (and mine was originally an SRi, so same bumpers and interior as yours )

Would be nicer without that nasty shopping list.
Do you even have anything Apexi, Samco or AEM?

Apex-i S-AFC II
Apex-i cone filter (Genuine one from driftworks)

Fidanza Flywheel

AEM C-A-I
AEM Bypass valve

Samco hoses on links of CAI, breather pipes too

 

[skymera]

World first there

Shopping lists are still queer.

 

[Belly93]

Cheers john ill take a look when I get a chance

 

[Belly93]

this went to the scrap yard in the sky , needed a vic check and full sills :/ so out came the engine for the micra
