I recently had my OEM suspension re-installed (after taking the JRZ's off) however the guys that did the job failed to reconnect the wiring harness to the top of the shocks. I can't see where the wire coming out of the top of the shock plugs in to?? Can someone give me a hint? I can't seem to find the section in the electronic service manual either. In addition, does anyone know how the harness works on the rear shocks? I am afraid i will have to pull the interior apart to confirm it's actually connected. (fwiw, the guy that did the job is on holidays atm, so i can't ask him). Thx.

The plugs look to be concealed under the engine surround thingo.

I just hope they connected the rears..

      Yes, well, mine were 31 years old last year when they finally got done. Started to leak a bit.

      I've ordered a new fuel pump and plan to do all the fuel tank hoses at the same time. Those are the hoses I would rather not go on the road.

      As a general rule removing rubber fuel hose is so difficult I would replace it if it hasn't been done in the last 5 years. The risk you damage the liner or one of the inner layers is pretty high if it's not almost brand new. BMW's recommendations around coolant hoses is similar. My R33's fuel hoses at the fuel tank were so perished that they were ready to burst FYI.

      Yes. It's either "2 wires", or 1 wire, depending on how you look at it. It is the connection that ties the battery -ve to both the chassis and the engine. Every electron that goes in or out of the battery goes through those 2 small spots (on the inner guard and on the engine block). If those are not clean and tight, then shit starts to suffer. Yeah, but measure it again cold in the morning, after it has had hours to rest. You can't usefully test the charge state of a battery immediately after it has been running because the alternator puts a surface charge onto the plates that takes a while to soak in and balance out. It will always read higher, and potentially look properly healthy, when fresh off of charge. But hours later it can look a lot less healthy. It's also worth measuring the battery voltage while cranking, although this can be difficult with a typical DMM because the screem update rate is so slow on most of them. An analogue voltmeter is actually a better tool for that. If the voltage drops too far while cranking, it is a sign of a poor battery. Although I don't think we're necessarily looking for a weak battery here - just wanting to exclude it.
