pissing about getting dash parts out, unplugging and plugging switchs and things in. Turn the car on to make sure my lights still work, yeah they do but my power steering has gone pete tong and so has half my dash lights, Speedo rev counter and speed meter. I wasn't overally impressed and paniced, called everyone i know related to a corsa, ended up being number 17 fuse had blown.

Tiny little red thing fucked up half my car for 5 minutes. How lame

on other news i bought a pair of irmscher side repeaters for £15. Look nice same as old ones but there so inferior to irmscher

Your fuse had gone and you rang everyone you know

Thats nearly as bad as when I ran out of fuel and thought I had blown the car up because the fuel gauge was faulty

my mate did that a few weeks ago in his R5, thought he'd knackered the fuel pump, so he left it alone for 2 weeks. Me and a few mates went round to sort it out and realised it had no fuel. What a tool.

had to tow mi mates swift home the other day, his fuse had blown for the imobiliser and car wouldent start, dint know that at time tho. It had blown about ten fuses in the space of driving down the road, turns out it was something touching part of the engine and kept blowin.
