Hi these are common faults and when I have more time I will help you sort some out.meanwhile do a few searches and all the info you need will become available.At least its only minor things wrong mostly trim related.The bulb failure light will go on sometimes when using cheap bulbs or mismatched bulbs(quality wise)it is designed to measure the resistance in the circuit.Anyway we will soon sort out most of your woes.
Regards Brian. |

Headlamp wipers
You may have to remove the headlamp wiper motors as the MoT testers might regard the shafts as a dangerous protrusion - I got a warning from my local MoT station with an earlier 245 for this.
Door opening - or not. Remove the door trim and check the links inside are all connected properly. At least the Haynes manuals have a clear drawing of the linkage.
