Suggestion

Pretty straight forward - no more than 1 hour for both sides - direct plug and play on these units - remove interior trim - 3 x retaining nuts to remove - disconnect wiring loom - fitting is opposite - worth checking the seals while they are off - the units i purchased came with new seals anyway - also there is an option to have the indicator solid or sequential via a switch on the rear of the unit.

These are separate views of the same evidence. Frequency alone does not establish a fix, and these counts must not be added together.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

7 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

0 evidence records excluded for query context · 0 excluded by outcome qualification · 0 adjusted by outcome qualification.
