Know what you mean dean, i do check in to see what's going on but nothing (save for jamies project updates) these days, so think the forum will remain for reference, but that's about it now.

FB is good for some things, others not so - so understand the decision there as well.

Shame to see the forum go the way it has gone but it is what it is, we all tend to socialise anyhow so onward we all shall go!

How To Guides / Facebook linking

« on: July 11, 2016, 09:23:17 pm »

As you may notice, there's now a Facebook icon in the bar above the reply box (if using full reply, not quick reply!), all you need to do to show a Public FB post here, is click the button and paste the link to the post (right click the post and copy link).

Note that it needs to be a public post, not to a private / closed group, so for instance a photo status change is public, whereas a post to a secret / closed group isn't

So the link to the photo being changed by Su is (spaced so teh forum doesn't try to render it!):
h t t p s://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=10153512912100670&set=a.430119620669.231655.730425669&type=3

so click the FB button and paste, you get:

Checked all the fuses I could find, including inline ones - all good.

Battery was freshly charged.

I think the ones for the poppers come from one of the 2 small fuse blocks on the firewall in teh passenger footwell...so if they good then very odd, don't think there any more, the system is obviously working to an extent if you can hear the relay firing, it sounds like the solenoid isn't getting power...which is controlled by the relay and the fuses...so if fuse OK and relay clicking then very odd one....might mean pulling a door card off and seeing if you get 12v at the solenoid +ve connector

On pressing the button on the remote you can hear the D/S relay clicking but it's not firing the solenoid . . . . on the P/S I can't even hear the relay clicking - nothing.

Pushing the buttons "hidden" on the rear does nothing, either (I can't hear the relays but am obviously further away).

Hmm, guess the battery is all OK as it started....only thing might be worth checking is the fuses as there is a fuse between the relay and the solenoid (i think!)

I do have an issue with the door poppers which'll need investigation.

What's up with them??
