Martin_mad Posted June 1, 2020 Share Posted June 1, 2020 Hi,I've decided to fit switch within the "A" section of the windscreen mount. Downloaded template and guide from club guide section (many thanks). I have drilled holes and ordered an Autolec FIA cut out switch from Caterham. I noticed the OBD bracket is very close to where switch will be. Asked Caterham how to get round this and was told to remove the bracket by undoing 2 screws. I can't find these screws. Any suggestions please. My car is a 2018-19 420R. Thanks in advance,Martin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SM25T Posted June 1, 2020 Share Posted June 1, 2020 What does the ODB bracket attach to ... are the screw heads maybe the engine bay side of the bulkhead ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChrisC Posted June 1, 2020 Share Posted June 1, 2020 Not removed a OBD bracket before, but I can confirm my 420R with a factory fitted battery isolator does not have the OBD fitted behind the knee panel, unlike my 360R which didn't have a battery isolator. The OBD port is just tie wrapped to the steering column. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Martin_mad Posted June 1, 2020 Author Share Posted June 1, 2020 Hi,I was told to remove OBD port and just let it hang down but I would secure it. The bracket is attached to the rear of the dashboard. Martin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Martin_mad Posted June 2, 2020 Author Share Posted June 2, 2020 Just had an email from Caterham and they cut it off. Not an easy task in situ. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Martin_mad Posted June 3, 2020 Author Share Posted June 3, 2020 The bracket is used to mount the wiper used on LHD car chassis. It is a pain to cut off and I regret deciding to mount it here. I really should have mounted it on passengers side foot well LOL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
