Took the 35i for a little jaunt today as it was nice & dry, when I got to a nice bit of clear duel carriage way I popped it into sport & nothing... no sport mode
So I carried on anyways using the paddles but it just wasn’t as much fun.
I knew it would just be a wiring issue as I’d read a couple of threads on here about it.
When I got home I popped open a beer & settled down to fix the wiring.
Once the centre console cover was off, the shifter mechanism out & the wiring cover off I could see two of the wires had snapped & all of the others were near to breaking.
Snipped & stripped all the wires, had another beer slipped some heat shrink over the wires, twisted the wires together in turn & sealed with the heat shrink.
It’s a fiddly little job, all the damaged wires were very close to where they disappear into the shifter mech with one wire damaged in two places, the second being to close to be able to cut so that got reinforced with heat shrink.
Had a senior moment on reassembly when I couldn’t remember where the white connector went but all back together & working now
