Any LEDs that won't throw a fault Ed? Or maybe a resistor?

Urgent help needed please... I have repair wire 000 979 019 and it does not fit into the terminal block of the door controler, should they have to be forced in... This does not look very close to fitting.

Help please the car is in bits, I'm getting cold and want to go home.

They do fit, but will need gentle persuading. Check your putting it the right way in and gently push in, I used one of the misuses hair grips to push down until clicked into place.

Take your time, don't rush it, that's when things always go wrong  :happy2:

Which controller are you doing front or rear? Which Gen controller?

Which pin position on the block?

Upload pictures to photobucket, then copy and paste the image code in your post  :happy2:

Car is a May2008 built ED30 3 door,
Started at passenger side door,
 I Have this controller (btw  Any idea as to what type of controller it is?  GEN 3 min or max)
Trying to fit into  pin numbers 18 and 19




The offending items






The repair wire just will not fit in that hole without butchering the connecter block.

Will call  TPS in the morning to check they have supplied the correct part.

Cheers for the help so far

That yellow cable seems really thick! My one was thin as the factory ones going into the controller

Yeah dude that's the wrong wire. They must have given you the wrong one.

000 979 019 fits fine.

BTW to answer your question, thats a gen 3 controller. MIN or MAX you'll need to scan with VCDS  :happy2:

Ed would these do the job?

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/XTEC-LED-LOAD-RESISTOR-KIT-FOR-W5W-501-T10-5w-LEDS-/271051019648?pt=UK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM&hash=item3f1be65580

So these arrived this morning. They work and stop the error code but cannot fit them inside the unit as the LED's are too big  :sad1:

Anyone know of a smaller resistor kit?
