Lead Snapped off any ideas Please ?

[Dmoe 0]

Hey just been cleaning under the bonnet and noticed this lead snapped off

im guessing its come from the connections on the battery to the left of the circle, unless anyone knows its frome somewhere else near by. Does anyone kno what this lead is exactly and what it would be powering? Thanks in advance..

Nope, but I'd say it needs connecting

There was a chap on the forum that had the same problem with the light and he fixed it by clipping something back in in the reservoir. U never know

Fixed that Lead today and the Handbreak light went off at first for about 3 miles and then came back on seemed after i went over a pot hole any ideas please? Thanks

Did u sort the sensor on the reservoir matey?

The light is prob on because the stick thing in the cap of the brake fluid bottle is stuck because the bit inside has fallen off. Undo the cap and clip is back in so the stick thing goes up and down freely. The stick thing should float on top of the fluid.

So when its fixed and the cap is back on, tap the stick thing and it should 'bob' back up. If not then put a little zip tie round the stick thing on the outside of the bottle and it will stop the washer on the stick thing hitting the connections on the cap and putting the light on.

Hope that makes sense. Lol.
