Nurburgring; Karoussell and electrical failure!!
#1
Help! Did the `Ring this weekend. On the final lap (typical!) going round the Karoussell lost electrics to:
Speedo
Tacho
Digital Odo
Clock
Temp gauge
Windows (drivers-side control panel)
Indicators (from stalk, hazard button still works)
Fuel gauge still reading but not moving and dash illumination functional. So car is in limp mode because of no speed signal........
The corner in question compresses the suspension, so that towards the end of the turn the car was on its bump stops, so 3 or 4 BIG shocks coming through the car.
I figure a connector has vibrated loose somewhere....
Anyone know where a suitable connector may be located? Relays?

There are two fuse boxes.. one under the bonnet and one under the kick panel next to accellerator.. I'd check all the fuses and push all the relays in to check they are connecting correctly.

Yeah, done that!
Thought I had melted a bit of the loom on the headers, but no!
Anyone know where the ignition relay is located? Its on the bulkhead somwhere.......
