Thanks burner man, been Googling and lots say mass airflow sensor. So its worth pooping it in the garage, as it doesn't sound too bad. Is the MAF sensor easy to get at, as I noticed I have lots of leave debris under the bonnet so may have sucked a bit of poo into the sensor.

Hi, use one of these for electrical work, got 200k on the clock, no real problems except normal wear and tear. New turbo 3 years ago. Anyway, lately been loosing power and the orange glow plug light comes on. Dip clutch, turn ignition off and on, lift clutch and away it goes for either lots of...

Thanks for the replies, going down the line of just fitting new c/u and leaving Crabtree alone unless customer wants to pay for EICR on this board. Wasn't sure if a RCCB was suitable for replacement for main isolator. Forced contact reason sounds good enough not to do it.

Crabtree cons unit feeds 4 circuits, want to add 2 circuits from old fuse box but c/u has no rcd protection. Is it ok to remove the main isolator and replace with 80amp 30m amp rcbo or does a double pole isolator have to be upstream in a consumer unit.

Yep, I stand corrected on the notifyable work. Part P is being watered down to even less importance.

Solicitors paperwork will ask about the electrics and certificates. If you do not own up to carrying out notifiable work then if caught you could be sued. If you admit doing the work then certificates will be asked for. Sounds like you have done what the electrician would have done except it...

As above, in my opinion you are not asking for rewire so insisting on splitting the circuits is not required. I would carry out an electrical installation condition report first and then discuss any faults found. You may decide on a rewire depending on how the testing goes. Say no problems than...

Peeps, Got to make an RJ45 to RJ11 cable for a customer whose floor socket has moved 6m away. Got the crimps etc but not sure on what pins to use on each plug. Tried a google search but had a few different set ups. What are the correct pins to use please. Most of the sites are US standards...

Attempting to move a master socket and shorten the drop cable, before I just cut it to required length, is there any voltages to be wary of. Or is it best to strip it back and cut each wire one at a time. Stupid question I know but never done a phone line before.

All sorted out now. It was an AOL account and somehow it had been compromised. Had to reset all of the security settings and passwords with AOL and then this enabled Ipad and phone to log on with new settings. Thanks to all for taking time to read and reply.

Hi, My new i pad and samsung s2 has stopped accepting aol e mails. They have both been working and nothing that I know has changed, just does not accept the e mail address or password as correct. My laptop is still working ok with the same info. Not sure of what to do now. Tried deleting the...

As pointed out, to omit bonding you need to prove all 3. Point 3 is carried out using continuity tester to ensure that all metal parts in the bathroom zones are connected to the main earth terminal via the water bonding conductor in your CU. If no continuity then you probably have plastic...

Can someone advise on this please. Scout hut extension and plumber is installing two mains water electric showers. I have raised the question that what if two children were showering and the toilets was flushed, will their be a possibility of scolding due to flow dropping. I only mentioned this...

Last night I backed up all required data from my old laptop into qty 2 external hard drives. All info was on them. Tonight I have tried to download them onto my new laptop and they are not detected. I have since found out that I plugged them both into a USB 3.0 connector. Both drives are not...

Looks to me that the rose was the last of a circuit. The reds would be together as live feeds. One black would have a red sleeve on to indicate switched live and the other black would be the neutral. What test equipment do you have? Join the 2 reds together in terminal block. These are just...

will be back there in 2 weeks, I will get back to you then. If you could e mail me at [email protected] for a more suitable contact then I can go direct if that is ok with you.

Westie, need to pick your brains on this as only seen it once before. Trying to ascertain the supply type of customers service head. It is not PME but does have a black cable coming from inside the hockey stick to the earth block. ELI is 0.29 so I can only summise that it is TNS with the balck...
