Post subject:  New Owner.. few questions
Hi all, actually posting on behalf of my dad. He bought a lovely 323f today, its the v6 model, sound gorgeous :-)

anyhow 2 questions really:

1 - the brake warning light came on a couple of times whilst driving? seemed to be when pushing the car as in accelerating hard - other than checking the brake fluid level any thing else that could cause it?

2 - after driving for about a mile the passenger side dipped beam light went out, so pulled in at a garage to get a new bulb. when we took the bulb out though it didn't look blown?? :-( so looks like an electrical prob, is this common? anyone know where to start looking? somewhere there could be a lose connection?

cheers guys

Right - your brake warning light probably means she's low on brake fluid.

Tiswas is right - it will stay on longer til it's permanently on - but by then you may find yourself buried in something having had lost your brakes.

If you find your fluid level is ok, it could be a faulty sensor - or the switch on the handbrake is sticking......

As for the passenger side bulb - if the new bulb fixed the problem, then the old bulb was most probably blown.

One problem is if the live connector on the H3 Dip beam isn't insulated, it can short cicuit on the metal housing on the lamp. Make sure it's either covered in a plastic shroud, or wrapped in electrical tape.

Doh!!! I meant Duffman!!!!! Sorry :oops:

If your fluid is full, I'd guess it's a dicky sender unit in the cap of the brake fluid resevoir - and presuming it's the same light as the handbrake, it could be a problem with the handbrake switch.

Hey thanks for all the responses guys :-) luckily the bulb issue was just the bulb ( thought it was gonna be a knightmare tracing elec prob ) bulb looked fine but must have blown as a new one works fine.

Topped up the brake fluid as much as possible and fingers crossed thats the brake light on the dash sorted - hasn't come on again once......yet

Put a new ariel in at the weekend, got the £20 universal job from maplins, had to files the braket a bit to make it fit but other than that all went in ok...... untill we came to test it!

Reception was worse than the coat hanger wedged in the previous one?? we came to the conclusion in the end the coax wiring polarity was the wrong way round for the new ariel ?????? weird but after splicing the lead and connecting the outta coax wire to the inner wire and visa versa through a junction box the reception was miles better?? very strange.... still not as good as before though. after a bit more fiddling about the reception was even better if you just touched the end of the lead from the head unit on the base of the ariel pole?? so now what should have been a really neat job is a bit of a bodge to say the least with the end of the lead taped to the base of the pole!

The head unit is a factory standard clarion unit?? anyone else had similar probs connecting univeral ariels??

not sure if my blurb really makes sense but when i said polarity of the coax wire i mean the lead has 2 conncetions yer, inner hard core and outta webbed thin wire. thats what we spliced and put into a junction box to connect the oppersite way around going from the lead from the head unit to the lead already on the new ariel


LOL - i cant explain things like this on paper very well - your probably reading this thinking ...WFT!!
