Rebirth of Khyber 1996 - Daniyal

Yes one low pressure and one high pressure.

Just one trinary will work. You wont need to use the high speed fan mode of this switch unlessyou have wired up a resistor to slow down the condenser fan.

And please Guide about the hot engine switch? Where do I fit that? In the flange, radiator pipe or somewhere else?

[miqdadkanani]

Despite best efforts, I am a bit confused wrt the connections. Can someone share the electrical diagram or confirm if the one I posted is fine and/or which of the 4 pins needs to remain open?

[miqdadkanani]

Since I have decided to get the speed meter fixed once again (for proper lighting), I though I should test the heat gauge and fuel gauge before handing it over to Hafiz jee.
I started the engine, disconnected the fan and let it run on idle for about 10 mins. The needle gradually increased and went around 40-45% mark. At that point, the radiator and inlet hose were tooo hot (just by touching). I didnt have the multimeter or infrared thermometer in hand at that time so I made a rough guess that the temperature might have been around 70-75 degrees. I remember when I was able to properly touch and hold my hand, the temperature as measured by a multi meter was around 45 degrees. Anyways, I connected the fan at that moment and the needle swung down to 10% (fan is direct at the moment).
Will test the fuel gauge in a while InshAllah.

In my opinion, keep original at its place while for your peace of mind, you can add digital coolant temperature Meter near steering or somewhere else to Keep eye on it

[miqdadkanani]

Yes Sir I am keeping the original one intact. Let's see if I am able to fit the cultus one hot engine cutoff switch somewhere. That will give me another point to measure water temperature.

Add a thermo sensor, set resistance by adding different resistances (if needed), Connect it to Coil brown wire (-ive), And its done. In a bit hurry, will explain in detail later.

Or simply buy a water heater cutoff switch, and add it with the grounding of the coil brown wire (-ive). Some thing like this, High Limit For Hot Water Sensor
P-SW-13004-X

[Xulfiqar]

The cultus one is a thermoswitch which opens up at 108c, meaning once 108c is reached at the sensor, the circuit opens up, cutting off whatever is connected, in your case its the compressor relay.

You can also do it the old vw/audi or bmw/merc way (ancient ones) - where this certain switch intercepted the compressor control wire directly, in vw/audi they had a 2 wire magnet, the switch controlled the magnet field coil ground leg.

Any idea how much does the fuel sender Unit cost? I guess the existing one is faulty. I refueled to almost 14 ltrs and this is what the gauge shows.

[miqdadkanani]

There's another issue that I am facing. When I press the Brake paddle, the car jerks a lot like an ABS system even if I keep it pressed. My foot experiences a return Force like something.
This is after my previous mechanic did something that I wasn't able to check or ask at that moment. What could have gone wrong?

It can be recalibrated, Check the yellow wire going under the back seat (by removing the back seat), remove it, ground it and see till where does the gauge moves, if to the top it (Speedometer one, not talking about sending unit that is in fuel tank) is good, if not get it checked.

[Hassan1991]

Brake rotors need resurfacing.

[miqdadkanani]

But I just installed new disks last month only. I myself bought them and the guy installed. Hardly been 50-70kms

[hassankhan03]

It can be calibrated or replaced easily , about the brakes , are they bled properly?

[miqdadkanani]

It was all good for the first 40 ish kms after I got the work done from Abdul hameed. But my mechanic did something and since that day I notice jerks.

He must have bled them. Although I m not sure. Guess I'll visit him then

[miqdadkanani]

Thanks. Yes i do notice a yellow wire there. I noticed the connection wasn't properly done and the Electrician agreed to do it when I go to him for headlights and other lights fitting.

I will remove the connection, ground it, and check. Thanks a lot Sir jee

[Hassan1991]

Brand new or used?

[Xulfiqar]

Is this steering from a tractor that was sitting in a field?
