Small Urs6 project!

[maiks]

Some things done again..
I had problems with abs. every time I turn ignition on, pops (!) on dash.
Rubber that was around the wires, was broken and that's why everything was very corroded, because water passed to abs pump. I changed the wires and cleaned pins. Little time and (!) was back in the business.
I cleaned again and again, but nothing helped.. So I searched the new abs pump and changed it...



One brake line didn't want to come loose



New brake line

And one more thing that I discovered later.. Abs negative wire was a little loose and corroded, so I cleaned those also.



Right now there is no (!) light, will see what happens the day i'll go driving.

One thing is also bothering me, I can't understand why brake pads light are also active... I don't have pads with sensors at the moment, so I removed wire under the hood.. But wires are separated, so the light should not turn on... Any thoughts?

Quick how to change cabinfilter urs6

First remove wipers (marked red), by pulling them out
You can also remove other bolts (marked orange), or do it later, no difference..



Pull out the plastic what You usually use for holding tools
There should be sealing to avoid water going to wrong place.



If you did not remove the bolts marked orange, then do it now and pull metal sheet out...
Under that, there is plastic again (I just pulled it out, comes very easily). There are few clamps what need to be removed before putting plastic back. (I removed clamps when plastic was off because they are quite close to window glass and I didn't want to brake it.)



There are three more bolts and that's all...



And here it is.



And when you do all this job and find out that there is no cabinfilter.. Don't worry, lots of c4 cars don't have... At least you can remove leaves and other crap under there...

And back together.

Changing the cabin filter took longer than I thought.. Needed a little fresh paint.



Old plastic mesh was broken, so I put new metal one..

After 20 years, nails have done pretty awful job.
A little plastidip and like new again Will see for how long it lasts..

Looks good! Is there a secret to removing the metal door pulls from the plastic pieces? I remember trying to work out how to do it without cutting, but I couldn't see a way..?
