I think it still depends on the upper column. Can you turn the wheels fully when the key is (finally) out? Jonathan
-
Mine did until I changed the upper column. If it does then I'd try the same as SM25T: ease the wheel a bit each way when it's jammed and see if it helps. Jonathan
-
... but is it a steering column lock? :-) Jonathan
-
Is it a steering column lock? Any suspicion of friction or not quite getting to the right position? It needs to go back. But while you're waiting for that I'd try: A gentle transverse clout to the lock when it happens. Some lubricant in the keyhole and on the key, either silicone or graphite, followed by twiddling the key.Jonathan

Thanks. I'll have a play with that. Jonathan

Haven't seen (or noticed) those pop-up notes on iCloud photos before: do you have to do anything special? Thanks Jonathan
-
Got it. Thanks Jonathan

Some here. Jonathan

If that swap doesn't solve it I'd want to: Be able to study continuity through the switch as it's operated. Check those relay(s).Can you operate that switch in circuit with it exposed to give easy access to the terminals? Jonathan

It would be interesting to hear what Members have fitted this winter... Jonathan

I'll see if Caerbont can make a Hall effect one with the right colour face or can swap my face in. There are three trusted speedo fettlers. Let us know if you can't find them in the archives. Jonathan

Probably the best single thread. Jonathan

If I wasn't trying to lose mass I'd take the existing one to a specialist and get a quote for repair. Is the ring gear on the flywheel OK? Jonathan
-
Thanks Jonathan
-
But does it carry any useful ID? Thanks Jonathan
-
Out of my league but would it be a good idea to: Inspect the cylinders Check the compression Check and change the oil?Jonathan

Central register of 7 equipment available for loan to members

Excellent idea. Well done. Will you seed it with the existing recent offers from that thread? Jonathan -
Include both tool offers and build tips, or just the former? I suggest just the former. Build tips being perfect for a multi-author wiki. J
-
Crank sender and associated wiring? Oxygen sensor and associated wiring? Jonathan
-
Well sorted. And that will be useful to someone else some day. Jonathan

Mike: How do you know those are the same as the Caterham part, please? Thanks Jonathan
-
The third-party one in my second post is also "1071403" at £14.99... Jonathan
-
Nope, can't find that ID on third-party Ford parts sites. But this one looks very similar... Caterham photo on top: http://www.caterhamparts.co.uk/img/p/4056-4030-large.jpg http://i.ebayimg.com/images/g/lmYAAOSwpDdU6eeA/s-l500.jpg Jonathan

The Caterham parts site describe that as "SKU: PR6314". The same ID is used on the Cosworth Duratec brochure and eg on a performance parts site in the USA. It's helpful to know that the ID isn't restricted to Caterham, but that doesn't quite answer your question. More soon. Jonathan
