Its easy, use a large spanner and unscrew it from the right-side towards to top of the gearbox.

If a manual, check the reverse switch on the gearbox. My shorted out and blew the reverse light fuse (which the indicators use the same fuse). Best way to check is to get underneath and use a paper clip (are wire) to bridge the terminals and if the reverse lights work.. the switch is Foobarred...

When I put VS central locking and door looms in one of my VNs I stuffed around with those a Jaycar remote central locking conversions and couldn't get it to work... it didn't work with factory Holden solenoids. I used an aftermarket alarm module for the remote locking but I left the alarm and...

Just had a look at a few MY06 Calais on carsales.com.. it seems later Calais didn't have the door lights like earlier VZ Calais.

According to your scantool, what was the sensor doing... is it dead or flatlining at a certain reading?

This might be a long shot.....the gauges look like they're out of an SV6........................is there a chance the different engine/transmission configurations are conflicting between the gauges to the PCM??

Yes you can, you will need to use VS set-up or VR... only difference is seatbelt colour; VR black, VS grey. Seatbelts, height adjust bracket and B-pillar covers all bolt in.

AFAIK.. VL and VN power assisted racks are the same... But the pipes where routed differently, whether its RB30, V6 or V8. For the record ...VNs never had the variable-assisted rack.. It was on VP Calais.

1982 Holden Commodore VH SLE I'm going to be a typical critic here.... It's nice rig but....overpriced considering it's not the highly desirable Shadow Tone (White would be the least appealing colour in my opinion) and it's missing a lot chrome; around the taillights and bonnet and no...

Mine took at least a month to 'wear-in' so to speak :D Give them time and soon they will be your best friend.

Blue motors occasionally had a habit of stripping the nylon cog. I thought the metal cog from red motors might fix?

Here is another early VB V8 with the possibility of rear drums.... 1978 VB Commodore Sedan Factory 4 2LTR 4 Speed Manual Vehicle in Warrnambool, VIC | eBay
