  1. I was trying to diagnose blocked rear washer jets on an A1 and this male connector snapped off. I unfastened the clip and pulled it off but this nipple snapped quite easily. is there a website where I can find the item number for parts like this? I assume it’s replaceable anyway. I don’t want to have to faff about with epoxying the snapped one back in place
  2. I was trying to locate a blockage for the rear washer jet and in the process I snapped this nipple off that the very end of the rear washer jet clips into. I unfastened the clip and pulled it off but Audi obviously use junk plastic. Can I buy this part online & replace it? I would rather not have to glue it back on and I also would rather not have to replace the full rear wiper mechanism
  3. All fixed now mate. I replaced the pigtail connector on one side as one of the pins was burnt out. The otherwise just needed longer to dry out. Thanks for the help
  4. I checked through her owners manual and there wasn’t really a defined fuse for reverse lights or indicator lights? There was one for reverse switch? I had a good look at that one just in case and it didn’t seem blown. I ended up just pulling out every fuse from both sides of the dash board and they all seemed fully intact. Ive been at work all day so I will check the voltage & wiring tomorrow. Kind of don’t think it’s the wiring though as it would be too coincidental surely? That the wiring suddenly broke when I had stripped the light down?
  5. So basically water got into my mother’s taillight from a bad seal, and corroded one of the bulb holders. It had no power anymore whatsoever. So I cleaned it with a wire brush, soap & warm water, bicarbonate & white vinegar, then I dried it with a hairdryer and sprayed it with electrical cleaner. Then I plugged it back in and everything was working again. I decided to check the other taillight and I noticed that it was full of white rust much like the first one was. So I decided to clean this one up with the same method. I plug it back in and now the indicator & fog light will not work. Can I do anything to fix this? Or have I obviously shorted it or something? I don’t know that’s behind the black bit in the centre but does it contain something that I may have shorted out? I admittedly didn’t dry the 2nd one for as long although it did look & feel dry
