has anybody else noticed that Haynes car manuals are rubbish these

They always were, compared to factory manuals, which you could get for
most cars. Cost a lot more than Haynes, though.

they weren't bad in the 70's and 80's but they got lazy as cars got more
complicated.........

I don't tink they were ever as bad as then rival manual I bought for my
Anglia. "If the windscreen wiper fails to operate, connect a 0-15v voltmeter
to the motor terminals and check that a current of 5 amps is being drawn."
{First find your motor terminals}
