Found out that the oil sensor wire was damaged, repaired it and the goshdarn buzzing stopped Still cannot find a reason for non functioning engine heat gauge/fuel gauge. Must be a faulty wire or something.. where is the earth point for those two?
Btw. I drove about 100 miles without problems, almost to my home when there was a loud BANG from the exhaust and car stopped and did not start again. It tries to start but no cigar. Im suspecting coil has gone bad and excess fuel banged in the pipe. At least i hope that is the case...
when you get back to worrying about the gauges, it is almost certainly the voltage regulator on the back of the clock/rev counter that is at fault. it provides 10v for those gauges. they earth independently, through the respective senders.
I've also changed that regulator.. Problems continue, no change in engine behaviour with new coil.. Ordered new ignition box and thats about it, i dont know what else to do. Damn petrol cars, i'll swap to 1.9TD as soon as possible.

I have to say you would fix these problems quicker if you concentrated on one at a time ( one problem per thread), this thread is all over the place, I'm lost
you need to break clean and remake all of the electrical connections including the earths in the engine bay....when you do the ecu don't turn the ignition on until you are sure it has a good grounding.....and check the earth at the starter motor
