[6N] Central Locking Pump

Featured Replies

Basically just as the title says. My second pump have given up now and I don't want to keep wasting my money so would be good to seal it or protect it somehow.

Anyone could help, please?

haven't done it yet but I'm gonna whack some silica gel packs ( from old shoe boxes) in there to absorb the moisture sounds good in principal but i wont know if it works until i try it

I'm gonna seal the rear lights at first and see if that helps coz I think that is the main problem. Something that wouldn't let the water through would be good for the pump though :)

Someone on hear suggested re-positioning it to a higher position, but still in the O/S rear, it sounds like a good idea to me, but haven't got round to doing mine yet.

Regards.

Plastic bag, 5 silica packs and a cable tie.

Put the bag over the pump and chuck the silica thingys in and use the cable tie to seal the bag around the pipe and cables, then make a FEW holes near the cable tie. Job done hasn't gone wrong for 16 months so far!

cheers for help bud,

I don't really understand the bit I quoted, where should i make the holes?

Would really appreciate it if you could take some pictures of how you've done it ;)

Make a few holes in the bag itself, as this would allow it to pull in and blow out the air when it works.

I made my holes right at the top where it seals with the cable tie but any where would be fine.

Il try and get some pics up
