Basically since i bought the car, the right side repeater never worked, and I av only just got round to fixing it as the MOT is due, but av got a problem.

As I carefully pulled it out, found that there were no wires attached to it, but I av found 1 of the wires but cant see any more down there, is there meant to be two of them, as it aint workin wit the 1 wire connected, even with a new bulb in place.

I am sure there is supposed to be two right

How the hell will i be able to get it from that tiny hole, as i cant see a thing down there!!!

:( :x

just take the other one out of the other side to get it threw the MOT then work it out.

p.s. yes there is suposed to be two wires 1. live 2. earth

coz some fool has superglued them down, and i dont wanna take it off, as i might fok it up

Isn't there a hatch in the arch for this kinda problem?

Also the wires go through behind the kickplates inside.

yep the easyest way (for me anyway) is to get to them from the footwells.

you can take the wing off

Or run new wires from the indicators at the front through the drain holes.

Taking the arch off is a bit extreme and you need to paint/protect the joins and bits when you refit them to prevent rusting, of course there is the suprise factor of rust hiding under there when you take them off too :roll:.
