My oldman teach that, less confusion etc, to double check ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mixmasterlooney Posted July 3, 2014 Share Posted July 3, 2014 What was this grey wire for? Sounds like a ground, I'm still thinking the starting issue is a result of push start Sent from my GT-N7105 using Ford OC mobile app Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nazsky786 Posted July 4, 2014 Share Posted July 4, 2014 Only way I'm gonna find out is with a multimeter. But havnt really had a chance. It's on my to do list. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nazsky786 Posted July 4, 2014 Share Posted July 4, 2014 It's the starter wire which goes to the relay in engine bay. Car starts from barrel to relay so I don't think it needs one. It might just be c111 which needs to be removed maybe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It might just be c111 which needs to be removed maybe. Just check C111 connector, i think there's bad contact, and your car won't start. Mine does that Cluster said: Aux Heater. and nothing, else no power etc, but just reconnect C111 and voilá then again starts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mixmasterlooney Posted July 12, 2014 Share Posted July 12, 2014 when removing the dashboard what about the passenger airbag? is that attached to the underside of the dashboard how did you get over that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nazsky786 Posted July 12, 2014 Share Posted July 12, 2014 There are 2 bolts I think. You eithier have it it attached by melted plastic or bolts. But there are 2 bolts 1 behind the left centre air vent and one under. I'm not sure if there was one to the left but most likely there is.

nazsky786 Posted July 12, 2014 Share Posted July 12, 2014 I and the airbag itself is attached to the dashboard you SHOULDNT by try to remove it off the dash itself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mixmasterlooney Posted July 12, 2014 Share Posted July 12, 2014 JW guide Is good but the translation isn't the clearest some parts I don't really understand I think I need to dedicate two days to this mod Sent from my GT-N7105 using Ford OC mobile app Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nazsky786 Posted July 12, 2014 Share Posted July 12, 2014 You should get it done in a day. Not to hard. 3/5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mixmasterlooney Posted July 12, 2014 Share Posted July 12, 2014 I can't risk a none start up, need to plan in advance. Although I had this weekend I didn't plan so I called it off. Hmm okay so I have to remove steering cover, clocks, vents, radio and header covers, glove box, what else? I saw JW removed his entire center console including gear stick knob and covers, is that essential? Or just apart of his original mods?

nazsky786 Posted July 12, 2014 Share Posted July 12, 2014 I removed everything. I removed front seats, dash, centre console. The dash I remove everything that was on it so radio, vents etc. I just makes it easy to get to all the wires and stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nazsky786 Posted July 12, 2014 Share Posted July 12, 2014 That's why Ford charge about £1500 to do it for you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mixmasterlooney Posted July 12, 2014 Share Posted July 12, 2014 Is it necessary to remove the center console though? Can the dash be taken out without the gear stick knob and surrounding removed?

nazsky786 Posted July 12, 2014 Share Posted July 12, 2014 You can keep the gear handle and the surround on. But the actual centre console needs to be move out the way. Or you may end up damaging something if it gets caught Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nazsky786 Posted July 12, 2014 Share Posted July 12, 2014 It's not technically they are 2 pieces. But to put the dash forward to remove the centre needs to be removed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stoney871 Posted July 17, 2014 Share Posted July 17, 2014 How is the centre console connected to the dash? Did you take any pics? Sent from my GT-N7105 using Ford OC mobile app The front of the console has 2 clips on either side that hook into the lower dash and two torx bolts. Remove the screws under the flap in the rear tray, remove the gear surround trim and undo the bolts then slide the console up and back to unhook the clips. Probably a good idea to remove the handbrake trim/gaiter too. Pull up from the rear and pull off over the handbrake.
