SA Import Beta 2000 Coupe

[Nigel]

Mark,
On the fuel filling, I had a chat with Andrew (Sandro), he mentioned the same.

I always have to fill with the nozzle pointing up, otherwise it cuts off, despite my
breather being ok. I suspect other shape Beta's may suffer the same.

Good to see you Saturday.

Ha, really?  I wont rush changing it then :-) and I will try up instead

Saturday was brilliant.  Great to see you and the gang.  My son Tom had a wail of a time getting rides in anything that looked fast.  His last ride.

PS - tonight I tested removing the old stone chip and tried my smooth stone chip.  I put it on thick so will be interested how it dries.  I might try one of the sections next.

so at the connector (no load/motor disconnected)

Grey - Fast - 11.2
Blue/White - slow - 11.2
Blue  - Int - 10.2
Blue/Black - Park? - off 11.2/int 11.3~10.4

With motor connected and running free (no wipers)

Grey - Fast - 8.9
Blue/White - slow - 9.5
Blue  - Int - 8.6
Blue/Black - Park? - off 11.2/int 11.3~9.5

I guess nothing to loose but strip the motor contacts area?

These voltages are indicative of a drop somewhere in the loom, which is what I had.
See if you can trace the wiring backwards from the column through the intermittent relay
through to the wiper motor. Somewhere there will be your fault.

N.

Out in a little bit of rain and the wipers seem worse than they were a year ago.  I need to sort this out.  Obv a relay fitted, on fast or slow (which one?), and trace back and run a new mini loom for the time being between the wiper connection in the scuttle back toward the switch?

Any advice on a quick and easiest fix for this?
