Hi.

I have sent a pm to prank and r31nismoid and have had no reply for a while now.

What I would like to be able to do is edit my phone number out of old for sale posts.

I'm sick of getting contacted way after items are sold, even when I have updated them as sold.

I sort of understand why we aren't allowed to edit posts, but would like it if either a mod could delete my number from all posts or give me temporary edit rights so I can do it.

Cheers

Ben

Just to help you out Ben I would recommend in future that any For Sale threads you create, you only send your number privately to the interested buyer.

What is that saying? "what you post on the net stays on the net"

I get the concern with scammers, but seriously.... I've sold heaps of stuff. Heaps of people have come to my house to buy it. I've posted things worth over 1000.

I have clearly made a lot of posts.

It would be a person way more dedicated than me to spend over a year helping the community, selling a lot of stuff then to just try to scam people. Especially considering the fact I have never hidden my number, or asked people to meet me away from home etc.

It's just as time has gone on I have found having my number on the net is annoying to me.

I understand my request means work for someone, but realistically I'm still entitled to ask.

Anyway, its actually a part of the rules of the for sale section to post a phone number, and I appreciate that. What I don't understand is why it has to stay there after the item is sold.

Many other forums delete or completely edit threads once the item is sold. This forum has decided for some reason to leave the thread intact, I presume to get more google hits. That's cool. But why leave the number there?

Anyway, hopefully it's easy to edit them for me, or give me temporary editing rights.

Cheers

Ben

Not trying to spark an argument.

I just double checked the "SA Section - For Sale" thread and I did not see anything mentioned about it being compulsory to post your phone number?

Anyway despite the above I hope for your sake you can get your number removed....

Its in the main for sale section rules, number 8, can't say I've read the SA sections rules. They also say must include a valid email address, which is just silly. Perhaps its time to update them.

Its not like the rules are really enforced though....

Its not a huge issue at the end of the day.

Perhaps if a mod could explain why we can't edit posts after a certain time?

Cheers

Ben

Sorry - Missed PM's, i dont set them to notify me (i only check them once a week/fortnight).

If you use the "report post" button, then everyone in the team should see it (ie heaps of us), rather than just a single private message. That way anyone can action it when they get a few spare mins in their day.

I'll sort it out later today for you.

RE: Post editing - to stop scammers who would edit entire posts at once after ripping someone off so there was no way of tracking them or what the goods were. It cannot be enabled for a 'single instance' or anyting, it's a global change.

Thanks for clearing that up.

How hard would it be to do a word filter style replace of my phone number? Replace with pm for number or something similar?

Cheers

      Does anyone know whats happening with harness on drivers door?

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      So, COM doesn't mean comms. It means common. What common itself means will depend on the type of device. For a two directional actuator (ie, one that can push and pull on the same output rod) then the common will typically just be the earth connection. There will be at least 2 other wires. If you put 12V on one of the other wires, then the actuator will push. On the other 12V wire, it will pull. Can't quite make out what is going on with the wiring of your actuator. It appears to have several wires at the actuator plug, but there only appears to be 2 wires where its loom approaches the door control module, with at least one of the others cut off. I don't know these actuators off by heart. I'd have to look at a wiring diagram for one before knowing what the wires were about, and that's despite me having to replace one in my car not all that long ago. Just not interesting enough to have dedicated memory set aside for trivia like that any more. That actuator is an aftermarket one, not the original one, which probably died and was replaced. That might require some sort of bodge job on wiring to make it work. Although nothing should justify the bodginess of the bodge job done. As to the soldering job on the door module's loom plug. Ahhahhahaha. Yes, very nasty. Again, I cant tell you what any of those wires do. You'd need to study the R34 wiring diagram (if you can find one that shows the door module). I don't think I have any. I'd have to study the R32 diagram to start to understand what mine is doing, and again, even though I've had a problem with mine for the last 25 years (where it locks the passenger door when the driver's window reaches top or bottom of travel) I'm just not interested enough to try to to work it out. So long as it's not burning down, it's fine with me. Here's the R32 GTR diagram, which, confusingly, has rear door lock actuators and window motors on it!! As you can see, unless you understand the functions of the door lock timer and the power window amplifier, you'll never be able to work out how it works just from the diagram. I don't imagine that the R34 one is any better. Hopefully an R34 aware bod can help. FWIW, the two wires that are cut and joined look like they are both power supply - so hopefully it is not fatal to join them. The 10V you measured on the cut off free end of one of them is concerning. You'd expect 12V, and it might be the reason for the bodge job joining them together.

      Yeah, so try to post images with extensions that the internet can handle, not HEIC files which only arstyphones can handle.

      I have two questions here, The first is regarding the harness attached to the power window and central locking control on the drivers door. I can't understand why the previous owner would join these wires together on the harness and why they did such a shit job. There was a wire with 10v hanging in the open un insulated. The OEM remote control works just fine The second is regarding the blue, green wire attached to what I believe is the lock actuator? These were running to the old immobiliser connected to the 'UNLOCK - COM' and 'LOCK - COM' wires. I imagine COM means communication and they just send a signal to the immobiliser whether the car is locked/unlocked?  IMG_9032.HEIC IMG_9037.HEIC IMG_9038.HEIC IMG_9041.HEIC
