This is what I have in a brochure for Dedra Turbo, if you can make it out. Yours is a pretty good approximation given the original is unobtainable..

Spot on Frank, that's the original for sure! Which brochure is that? I have one or two Dedra brochures, I'll kick myself if it's in one I already have and hadn't spotted it  Glad you agree, I thought it a near enough match to go ahead with. I do like the seats in full Alcantara as they were on my old turbo, but this just makes a nice contrast. Just wish it wasn't so damn expensive to get done! |

You can probably relax because it's a European language paint and trim brochure for Dedra Turbo and Integrale. Options were full Alcantara, part Alcantara or full leather.

Bought this old factory tester from a guy in Italy recently, took a while to arrive with customs etc, hoping it will be successful at finding the ABS fault with the "how to" fault code procedure I also bought.. |

The club has a set of diagnostics in the tools, that I collected from near Oxford a number of years ago that had been used on Dedra.

Daft question as it wasn't under the back seat where it was supposed to be, but where is the ABS ECU?  |

Might not be much help but the Alfa 164 had a Bosch ABS system that came with it's own sub harness and was routed into the cabin where the ECU sat underneath the dashboard/centre tunnel. The ECU probably looks like this: http://www.partshive.com/abs-computer-fiat-tipo-1-9-td-en.html?search=dedraAnd I bet you've seen it and assumed it was the engine ECU - similar plugs. Then again, you've had the thing apart completely so I'm probably teaching my grandmother to suck eggs! Follow the loom from the ABS pump box back into the car? It'll be hiding in plain sight somewhere! Guy |

No, that's a big help Guy. I did Google it and found pictures like that, so knew the ones under the rear seat weren't the ones, sure they're to do with window control or central locking or something. I did remove one from under their but that was a mobile phone one, quite an expensive install back then no doubt! Did cross my mind that I may have removed the ABS one by mistake but the lack of a leftover loom put that to rest. I did wonder if it is somewhere behind the dash or on the transmission tunnel, Delta one used to be there I think. But maybe confused.... Happens a lot now! There is a strong chance it's under there as that's the only place I've not been! Thanks for the thought |

You're welcome Kev!
On another note I've just embarked on the restoration of a 1981 (1979 build date) Beta Coupe 2000 and it needs pretty much everything doing. Hopefully the bodywork will be straight forward as it looks reasonable from what I've found so far! The cremation/dip treatment/e coat process will tell me more in the coming months!
I once attempted to fit an ABS system from the Alfa 164 to the Stratos replica but a bit of faulty machining meant that was a failure. Well, it worked fine up to 4mph... Because of that experiment I'm fairly familiar with the Bosch ABS installation and wiring, it's something I'm contemplating adding to the Beta if I can sort out a sensor ring installation on the back end of the car.
Hope your search bears fruit soon!
Guy

Kevin, I sold my Dedra Manual with all the supplements include ABS, to Richard Carr, (Rikardo). I'm sure he'll look up the ABS section for you. Brian 8227 |

I do have a few hubs, drivehsafts etc for the beta coupe if needed A HiFi rear spoiler too in the loft, in the hope that one day I might get a Beta Coupe. A really nice set of seats too, really ought to sort through and sell stuff on for people who may need it. K |

Thanks Kev, there's a lot missing for the car I bought!
Next time I'm down in your neck of the woods I'll let you know!
Cheers

No problem, it'd be nice for some of the parts to be put to use than gathering dust! I do have some used panels removed from a car years back, front wings and rear quarters. Not perfect panels but better than ones that are dust! Might have a used front panel too. But I've heads, gearbox or two, hubs, calipers etc . More stuff than I know I've got really! And a bunch of the HiFi grafic sets! |
