I’d never seen the baking soda + super glue trick. Love it. I must have been living under a rock. Cheers

It's suuuuper handy

first off that wheel looks SICK! secondly, I know it sounds cheesy but watching guys like you on here dig into something theyve never done before on their cars and fixing it really helps build my confidence when I break into a new project on my car. thanks!

Well I'm glad the videos have that effect! Anything you see me doing on this car is the first time. Just approach everything as nuts and bolts. Take time to understand how it works and determine how to make it work again or work better. You can do it!

@@tangentsbhb thanks bud! luckily I also have a good friend thats a lot more versed in mechanic stuff than I am to help, Ive torn into my car a few times and managed to fix or replace bad parts and it feels great, next adenture is engine swap and an EFI conversion so this should get exciting haha

It's always fun to do the same job twice. It is sooo much easier after the practice run.

I put LED lights in my click and oil pressure gage, big difference! My clock didn't work, ended up taking it apart and replacing the two capacitors. Over a year later and still working great.

I just did the capacitors as well with success. That will be another video

@@tangentsbhb yes pleeeeaaase! As my clock is not working as well. 🙂

That Momo wheel is awesome!! I've used a screwdriver bit heated by a torch to quickly melt a slot on a plastic post to spread it a little similar to your application.

Nice results even if you took a few tangents along the way. In my own vehicle "upgrades" I usually regret the tradeoffs that can occur. Some have none, some just need to be undone! I have little patience for 1980s plastic electromechanical devices, you did great.

Oh very true! The wheel has taken getting used to. It was so slick at first and harder to be comfortable with but now is getting better

You need to clone yourself at least one time, maybe twice so the other you can work on the CBX and the SEI. Not that I am complaining or anything like that, any content is much appreciated and fun to watch...keep up the good work :)

Thank you so much for sharing! It is pitty that you did not explain how to unplug the "upper left" plug. That cost me two hours yesterday, to find out.😀 I did have to remove the insturments first and I am wondering how you did it without this. That would heva been impossible for me. 😲 Anyway, is it possible to replace these LEDs with yomething brighter or with a different color? Thank you! 🙂

50/50/90 rule bruh

When you were putting the dash back into the car i was like shouting at you "hey man, test it before mounting it back" :-) On side note - there is also a version of LED bulb which is not polarity specific - yes, all LEDs are as all diodes are polarity specific but these special "bulbs" has two LEDs inside in antiparalel configuration so no matter how you connect them one of them always shine. But this type is not so common and - as always - more expensive. Nice job - especially on repairing the fragile switches. On completly different note - in one or two previous videos i saw red VFR 800 RC46 - will you make a video about it? Just asking...having same red VFR 800 too plus one red VFR 1200F..being kinda VFR fan :-)

I was for sure a dummy to not test it so I quickly learned that lesson lol. The VFR is my friends bike actually. In case you aren't aware my main channel that I've had for years is all motorcycles. Same style and format of videos. It's kzread.info

Awesome video and the steering wheel looks great! Could you please explain why you put the dielectric grease on the connectors? Judging by its name, it seems like it would insulate the connectors and prevent them from making proper contact, or am I missing something? :D

@tangentsbhb

Thats just what you use on electrical connections. Silicone grease helps keep junk out but reduce friction

What did you put on the contacs after you cleaned them? Good videos, Keep it up!

Hi awesome video, i kinda have lil similar problems on my "brand new" 924/944... the temp gauce works kinda bad (it raise very very quickly to the danger zone...but everything works soo it's probably the gauge or dirt problem?). the temp gauge and fuel gauce "dances" if i put the headlights on and off...soo maybe some grounding problems idk?? And the last one problem, the AC switch like yours doesn't work :( I checked behind ofc it has replaced in the past but maybe again some wiring problems maybe not into the switch, but into the AC motor? If someone have some suggestions just tell me 😭 btw wheel and leds are just awesome!!

I would start by measuring temp switch function if possible. I don't know a ton about these cars to give good diag unfortunately
