I sat in on Jaspers one- really wasn't as bad as all that. The guy was pretty nice and helpful too.

Cheers,

?? News?

john_p_b - 22/8/05 at 05:35 PM

but only on what i'd say are minor things.

1. contactable edge on cycle wing bracket (n/s/f)

2. contactable edge on gear lever gator.D'oh!

3. contactable edge on rear reflectors.

4. side light switch not permenant live

5. headlights are left hand drive items!!! thanks MK!!!

so i rekon a days work, most of that spent taking the bloody panels out to get to the switch to change the wiring.

was expecting a lot worse to be honest so all in all not too bad.

Almost an identicle fail sheet as my 1st test apart from the permanent live,not a bad fail sheet though as all can be easily sorted.

My lights were the same,didnt come from MK though but i bet they are the black plastic checkoslovakian tractor lights.

they are black yeah but they don't seem to be plastic.

i've emailed charlie so hopefully it'll get sorted.

i didnt realise that parking lights were required myself, best go and check mine!

john_p_b - 22/8/05 at 07:21 PM

cheers charlie, as i've said in the email, not really the fault of mk as no doubt they were supplied wrong to you in the first place.

Where was parking lights mentioned on the SVA fail list. I must have missed that (unless thats how you define having perm live to sidelight switch.)

john_p_b - 23/8/05 at 04:34 PM

darren, yep thats the one, i've only got ignition live to side lights where as i should have a permanent live to it.
