  1. when was the last time they worked? If they've all stopped at once I'd say you have a wiring fault. Normally an earth. When you turn the heater hot to cold or vice versa, do you hear the flaps move? If no then that's electrics. imo You say central locking is not working..... Off a fob or key?
  2. I found that when I couldn't turn mine I got a friend with hands like the Hulk. Easy!
  3. Blue screen is normally caused by a bad driver or a memory hole (memory failure) if it's memory it's common that a hair has got on the points. remove the memory stick, clean the contacts and clean the slot. old tooth brush is good for the slot.
  4. Is there a way of checking this water temp sensor with a vault meter, or do I have to go buy a new one? Can it be cleaned? Just for a pointer. If I hold my foot to the floor, when the auto box shifts from 2nd to third I get a cloud puff from the exhaust, I'm thinking it's fuel....
  5. Just buy this m8 and cut it down. http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Toyota-Supra-Mk4-A-pillar-pod-2-Gauges_W0QQitemZ360198629910QQcmdZViewItemQQptZUK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM?hash=item53dd82ea16
  6. looking at it I can't see any fixing screw holes so I'd guess the rest of it is probably still screwed to the car get in there and have a good look. As you have the cable you have a radious that it can be inlocated in. What was it plugged into, got a picture?
  7. Wow! And there was me thinking that sticker on my active front spoiler was purchased from some sort of Jap Halfords.
  8. So he's like a maglite with no batteries; not the brightest.
  9. You can get all the tools including the bolt caps for the aerotop. Boot carpet is available in all specs, except the sub hole versions. floor mats are £43 tan or black. Spark plug removal tool is about £6
  10. I'd hazard a guess and say you have a short circuit somewhere. Take the clocks out and have a look at the connections then follow the cable back to the fuse box. I had a boost gauge that used to jump around all over the place, it was caused by rainwater geting to it. Only a guess mind you.
  11. This is ridiculous. Why doesn't he just say "your starlet is faster than my crx; and I don't care as I have a starlet in my garage. I'm not going to race you because your a c***!" And just walk away. Ok, ok he's gonna get called a chicken; which is not true if he's already admitted it's an impossible task, he's only a chicken if he makes out he could win and gives a gay-ass excuse for not racing. I don't think I'd get upset about him saying the supra was crap, jealousy has many faces.

    The last girl has a great singing voice. But I'm sorry, when she spoke I kept thinking Su Pollard from Hi-De-Hi!

    Tyre choice

    Worst tyre I ever had on the Supra was Dunlop SP Sport Maxx had the sport 9000 on the front and they were fine but with the maxx on the rear I couldn't roll out onto a roundabout (that's roll as in, not using the throttle at all) in the damp at the same speed as a family hatch without the rear letting go. So bad that I spun up the rears in the damp in a straight line at 60mph. First scare I had in the Maxx was at 45mph as I took a right hander and the back end stepped fully into a side road. Even vanish wouldn't get that stain out! I didn't wait for them to wear out. Never tried the Goodyear as I'm perfectly happy with the Toyo.
  14. What kind of battery is it? sealed or non sealed. If it's non sealed check the water levels, if your out of water your alternator wont charge it.
  15. Nice. Can you get clear lights for the back to match the rest of the car?

    Tyre choice

    I've just ordered my second set of Toyo Proxes T1-R. Good grip wet or dry.
  17. Well I have the car back and the exhaust is clear so I think the water temp sensor is next to look at. Don't suppose anyone has a Mr. T praice and part number? This sensor; would it be listed as "sensor, water temperature (for E.F.I.)" on the EPC?

    pc help

    Try starting the pc in safe made and deleting from there. I think constantly tapping the F8 key after pressing power on should bring up the option for safe mode.
  19. Sounds like you have a main earth fault.
