Winter is over and it is time to remove the Bontrager Mud-X tyres for something a little less spiky. But what will fit?
Lots of love for 2.35 Highrollers on singletrackworld so thought I would give them a try. Everyone says that the Highrollers come up small and mtbtires.com confirms it.
It would be better if all the tyres were in a sortable searchable database rather than individual web pages by manufacturer but we manage to struggle on.

Ford focus central locking
It started with a temperamental key and ended with remote locking not working at all.
I took key apart (see user manual) and checked the battery - 3V no problems there.
Tried resetting remote key. That worked fine, the key made the car beep when I pressed a button. But still the locks did not respond to the key.
Then I found the turn it off and on again solution. Just unplug the Siemens box, wait an hour then plug it back in.
The waiting seems important. First time I plugged it back in after five minutes and the key still didn't work.

Look under the drivers side dashboard.Fixed!
Under there attached on the right hand side right is a box which should say SIEMENS.
This is the remote control signal box.
Remove the cables attached to it and leave it for approx 1hr.
Go back to the car after an hour and put the cables back in.
