Bingo! I've exchanged thermostat last week. Mine old (wchich I were giving to mechanics as new one) were just housing! They removed thermostat itself! After exchange car don't overheat! Great thanks!

Unfortunately car currently don't drive at all. During standing in traffic I was listening to loud music (radio is after market) car stopped. Whole central console don't work now (radio, AC) aswell - Car don't start. Temperature gauge is maxed out all the time. I exchanged CCU for new one, checked mega Fuse visually, checked fuses, checked temp sensors itself - nothing. Any clue?

When you turn the ignition key, do the electrics switch on? Like dash display, windows go up/down?

Yes, they do. As I said - temp gaue is maxed out and temp warning light is on. Radio and AC don't have power on it.

When you put electrics on only (engine off) and put it in reverse gear, do the reverse lights come on?

I'm wondering if the switch on the rear of your ignition has failed.

Ok, I'll try soonest I'll have access to the car. Remember it's 3rd world country, strange things can happen here with you. I cannot do this now.

Anyway, it's possible that this switch is cutting of power from radio and ac? I were disconnecting radio already to make sure it's not it.

The switch controls the supply of electric to different parts of the car, depending on its position. It has several contacts inside. Normally associated with problem starting or groups of electrical items failing to power up.

When you have an electrical fault like this, you need to trace the power loss. Choose an item like the radio and check the fuse supplying it has power. If not then follow the circuit diagram back to the source of electric for the radio fuse. It could be a larger fuse supplying several items. Or a relay. Don't have the circuit with me at the moment to look at and check.

Any luck fixing this?

Good day

Did you ever get this fixed as we have a similar issue.
