[SaxoAL]

all lights should go off when engine is switched on. Otherwise, whichever one stays on, means you have a prob there.

You are really starting to piss me off, all i have seen is thread after thread started talking about the same topic. Tbh mate get it to a garage and let them look at it because you obvs dont have a clue why it is working. I am sorry for the rant people, but this is getting to me, just look at all the threads that he has started.

[cockyt1]

thought idea of joining saxperience was for help and ideas obviously i was wrong

[Peejous]

It is, but he does have a point why have you created millions of threads about the same problem?

[pjsaunders06]

thought idea of joining saxperience was for help and ideas obviously i was wrong

Yes the idea is that mate, we are all here to help each other but when you have 11 threads all about your car not starting that is just taking the piss

[cockyt1]

am only new to this and had no idea that you wernt supposed to start a new thread about different problems

[pjsaunders06]

Same problem, car not starting/ not sparking. Everytime you have asked people have given you things to check yet you havent checked everything they have said.

[cockyt1]

correction, hav tried everything that was suggested

[Peejous]

Different problems sometimes require different threads but:

the flywheel sensor is about starting problems look at it. Every single mother f**king one is about starting problems, i told you before the best thing to do is keep it in one thread, then everytime you have tried what people have said you just bump the thread back up but no you didnt do that :n:

Flywheel Sensor

YOU
can any1 tell me wat a flywheel sensor is and wer its at on a 1997 saxo 1.1i?

It's more commonly known as a TDC or Top dead Centre sensor.
Is basically detects a point on the flywheel when the piston number 1 should be at TDC.

It is located between the engine and gearbox, if you look at the front of the car it is about halfway down the gearbox on the side closest to the radiator. Dont have any pics to hand but hopefully that should help.


yeah ive been told that this could stop car from sparking??

See everyone about no sparking!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
