Quick update, turns out it was the BCM module that had gone Pete tong many thanks for @ZMANALEX for getting the parts to me quickly paul

Just wondering if an ECU reset may help

Apologies if you have already seen this on Facebook I have a slight problem with my Zed. Car hasn’t been driven for a while and the battery was flat, so recharged it , but didn’t hold charge very well so replaced it. The problem I have now is lots of the electrical systems have stopped working or behaving oddly, like the indicators stopped working, the boot release wouldn’t work, headlights came on but wouldn’t turn off, wipers stopped working, plus a hatful of other issues. This kind of pointed to the IPDM module having gone faulty as this controls a whole lot of stuff that wasn’t working. A replacement module was sourced (thanks ZMANALEX) from the forum and has been changed over, however hasn’t made a blind bit of difference. Any suggestions as to what to try next? Car is 2005 roadster for info

Many thanks to @andy james for organising our stand for this year good to catch up with familiar faces and plenty of new ones good to see so many cars on the stand again, always amazes me how much variation there is roll on next year

Thanks for trusting my routing with the inferred closure of the M1 this morning good to meet you all again

for those that were looking

Hi all, i've just copied last years posting, as it contains good info!!! I'm trying to organise what usually turns out to be a small-ish convoy of vehicles from London and the south east area to travel to Japfest together, this really helped me during my first show as i was nervous about where to go and the exact steps to get in. Every year so far we have had around 8 vehicles from the Kent and Essex area meet at South Mimms services and we travelled up to Japfest together. As a first timer in the past this was amazingly helpful so I wanted to take the lead and organise it again. So, the meeting place is the South Mimms Services on the M25/A1(m) Junction. Bignells Corner, Potters Bar, Herts, EN6 3QQ The meeting place is the car park of the BP petrol station on site (NOT the main South Mimms parking area) as it means any lowered vehicles don’t have to contend with the main car parks speed bumps, so let’s meet there again. Feel free to arrive at any time you want as long as its ---before--- 6:40am. Any vehicles meeting at this location will be leaving at 6:40 am sharp due to the early entry requirement for Club Stand cars into Japfest. (we need to be in before 8AM) If you’re late then you’ll have to catch up. On The Day Notes/Tips The guys at the BP station have never given us any trouble for meeting in there as nobody else meets there, at least they haven't in the previous years we have met there, we don't clog up their site as we usually meet on the left hand side as you drive in, the parking bays there are usually empty at that time of the morning. Worth checking on this forum post if you struggle to find us, il be checking in, trying to find anyone that gets lost, or if we have to change locations on site. For large sections of the M25 and M1, there are speed cameras on the side, or above the motorway gantry's, so, drive how you want, but just be aware they're there. Whoever ends up leading (i have for some of the previous years) needs to remember that too. My sat-nav tells me the locations so if I just to happen to doing 71mph, its "safe" to do so. Also, once we turn off of the M1, you'll know, it looks like you're turning into a services, just cool it WAY down. There will be a police speed gun in almost every single lay-by in the last few miles to Japfest, there has been every single year When you get close to the circuit, ensure you have you car club stand tag hung on your mirror or visibly on your dashboard and everyone in the vehicle has their entry tickets to hand to ensure you don't hold up the queue! Not sure what stand we have been allocated yet but judging by the numbers we have we will be T(something) , so we have Tunnel (tunnel is fun!), you turn Left after getting through the ticket gates, Sorry if i sound like your mum i just don't want anyone's day to be ruined by points and a fine! Any questions please ask , but il start the list! (Added my registration so you guys can find me as there’s usually a lot of cars meet at South Mims) 1.

looking really nice mate.....looking forward to seeing her in the flesh next year....motors by the moat hopefully back on for 2022!!

Yep. Even arriving at the site at around 8, there will still be a big queue to get in. you can chance it, but in previous years there have been instances where people have failed to get on club stands because they aren’t through the gates before 9:30. Don’t forget, the public also start queuing to get in as well

theres a few of us meeting at South Mimms, but i think that'll be a bit out of your way

Will do!!

Thank bud....back to being Calendar worthy again!!

All finished, and Cleaned as well last big clean before Japfest, She'll get a quick jetwash on friday night, prior to early start on Saturday morning

Test fit, prior to bonding on

So after securing a replacement from the chaps at Tarmac Sportz, this weekend was the first opportunity I've had to fit it (had a bit of an eventful year.....heart attack, then getting made redundant as well) the side parts came away fairly easily, using some fising line to slice through the tiger seal, but the main part in the centre was well bonded on.....but a good soaking of Autosmart Tardis, softened things up significantly (this is brilliant stuff BTW) and the fishing line worked again. It left a bit of a mess amd had to use a scraper to remove all of the softened Tiger Seal

OK, so its been a while since i made any updates. ~(anyone who follows me on the 'gram (@paultk1) will have seen these so apologies A few months ago while driving home from work, a cut log fell off a pickup, 2-3 cars ahead of me....the SUVs in front of me just cleared it with no problem.......but I only saw it as it appeared out the back of the X3 in front of me, and being a normal single carriageway, with traffic on the other side I couldn't swerve to avoid it.....so I hit it....one damaged front splitter.

Where are you coming from, I’ve got a thread running about people coming from the south east
