Well guys just an update.

On a hunch i sent both Dim's to BBA Reman and they discovered both had the same problem which couldnt be fixed so i sourced a t5 being broken on ebay and after checking the serial numbers matched i bought it fir £45 delivered.

It arrived today and.................i have a fully working set of instruments, even cruise control is back.

Yessssssssssssss

Result!

I can honestly say, I've never heard of that working at all, nevermind being able to just swap p2 modules and have it all work!

I'm gonna go have a beer and dedicate it to your success

Thanks I think I'll do the same.

Next is trying to sort the sunroof, from the same car they sent me the working siren at £10 so let's see if that works. It worked for a bit but then failed in the tilt position so I had to manually close it.

Also got to fix front abs sensor, do anyone know where the best place to buy one? ECP has them for £40 ish

Full respect to you. I think it's very commendable that you stuck with what looked like an absolute nightmare and got it sorted <relatively> cheaply.

Thank you, I just didn't want to be beaten by it. It's been a real boost tonight seeing the working dash and keen to get it back to full health

Just read through this, well done bet you are delighted.

Its this sort of thing cem's and dims that scared me away from the phase 2 motors.

Think I'm gonna stick with my 850

Evening,

Siren fitted - sunroof working.

Final gremlin to sort, abs light and traction control comes on when car is warm meaning speedo drops off, 90% sure that the abs module is suspect so will try a replacement or have BBA reman check it over.
Other than that I'm delighted, we are moving house this weekend and I am amazed at how much space these cars have with the seats down, really are all rounders
