Omega Electrical and Audio Help / Re: Does any know where the wiring diagram is

« on: 15 February 2009, 17:33:33 »

Won't help OP, but just been given another wiring pic

Thanks to vauxfan2k (comes before z and after x) (comes before z and after x)

That looks good, the pre tensioners look the same, I might be lucky, it hasn't got airbags but with it being a 99 car I think the pre tensioners could be the same.

Phil

All 1999 cars should have side bags

Amazingly 99GLS estates came without rear headrests, pass or side air bags , I asked the Vauxhall dealer.

Cheers for that Jaime, but the one I was talking about we had last year said connect black wire to green wire etc... thought it was off here, it could have been off "The Master" though

Connect the 0v (brown from memory, 2 of them) wires to brown, and the 12v (red from memory, again 2) wires to the permenent 12v presented in the car (also red iirc)

So if I connect the browns to browns and reds to reds will it'll all work?
what happen with the air bags and seat heaters ?

Phil

They also need connecting, but the plugs should match for those.

I'm not sure there will be plugs in the car for anything as its only got electric height adjustment, no airbags heaters etc. but the seats have elec everything,
 so if I just connect all the reds and browns will the heaters be on and the airbags triggers

Omega General Help / Re: brake master cylinder

« on: 05 January 2009, 17:26:44 »

Yes, the pedal travels down farther than it should because it compresses the air first, giving it a couple of sharp dabs works and the pedal comes up, as it then works on the fluid only.

The more common cause is the master cylinder seals have been flipped by over enthusiastic forcing back of caliper pistons when changing brake pads.

I think Hydraulic systems either work properly or not , and there is no middle ground, if the brakes pump up at all I think you have a potentialy dangerous fault.

..... just that no motor factors listed them, not sure I'd want to use 2nd hand brake parts tho

Phil

Looks like you might be parting with £175!  
Are you sure they don't need a good bleeding? I can pump mine up very slightly, but I've found in the past that bleeding them has sharpened up the pedal.  

Thanks I'll try that first see if it helps, if not at £175 I might be thinking 2nd hand

The brakes pump up, the last 2 cars that have done this it was because the master cylinder seals had been flipped when the brake pads were changed
I'm not sure if they are all the same, just that no motor factors listed them, not sure I'd want to use 2nd hand brake parts tho
