treated myself and picked one up today

just got to set it all up

fun times ahead, lol

not sure if it's locked to just mine or able to do any D3

otherwise if it does all the d3 will bring it with me to the next lz meet and plug it in foc for anybody

few readings , but then realised i need to put the map sensor back in first

will then rescan , it is good it works

Stepper motor faults are common Gary. You're best clearing the HAVAC ECU so the steppers get powered again. You might hear a groan from under the dash. That is the motor moving the diverter flaps. The flaps get stiff with age and need to be operated.
If the drive current exceeds a set threshold, the ECU disables the stepper and flags a fault or two ;)

The seat wiring issue will only account for a couple of codes. The curtain airbags code is of some concern tbh. That's indicative of a side airbag deployment, but could just be faulty wiring.
 
thks

result , i needed to flash the ecu for 07 and pre

then the clock appeared :D:D

sad i know , seeing its only a clock

It's not just a clock Gary. There's a change of font and some improvements to the functions available on the display. It's also more stable and less sensitive to voltage fluctuation when cranking. It removes some of the annoying bongs too ;)

also done the automatic door locking ,

have put some pics up to see what u think, some u may have seen already

thks again
 
iid isn't sending emails now, grrrr

but found a write up concerning the codes

b0072
b0028
b0029
b002a

extract

looks like good fun , didn't know if anyone else has had this please, thks

1. Alot of connectors in the foot wells (n/s and o/s A pillar kick trims) had signs of water ingress so I cleaned all with contact cleaner. After reading GTR this is a common problem due to water ingress from the windscreen A-pillar trims, there is a service bulletin with a reference to some different trim clips to use to prevent this.

2. With the BCU removed and casing apart, there is a small black box component on the circuit board which had water ingress round... cleaned this carefully with contact cleaner and tooth brush. Before this the only code in BCU was something along lines of - Starter ignition coil 2 failure (or something along the lines) this code would never clear, after the clean up the code has gone? so this may be the reason? I have code and proper description some where so I will dig it out.

The reason for the 3 codes in RCU which would not clear were due to corrupt software in the unit, so after a new software package was down loaded in to the new RCU and the calibration was carried out everything is fine! I also replaced Passenger Air Bag isolator switch which now works correctly!
 
from a fully history report

no accident or claim made

srs light showing on not 25/4/13

same again 28/7/16

will be getting my multimeters, pen and paper and will go through the test list

failing that possibly needing a srs ecm

might be time for an oil change

i had to take a double take with that, a few days have gone since it was reset :eek:

going to do a basic engine oil and filter change , then will do the rest abit later on, :D

Make sure you use synthetic oil and the filter is fitted into the housing correctly, or crank failure can result ;)
 
am very impressed with this iid, with it showing so much detail

It's an awesome bit of kit Gary. The best bit is that Gap are continually updating and improving it.
The Hawkeye isn't in the same sport, let alone the same league buy comparison.

You wait until you want to graph and record things like the ABS sensors. You can actually get all the pulses on screen as a graph, and add steering angles to the mix. You can then see the ABS pulses change when cornering, by referencing them to steering angles. It a brilliant bit of kit. Probably better than the diagnostics that LR have at there disposal.

well this doesn't help

feels very soapy to the touch

wonder if they've overdone it with a car shampoo kit

hope to god its not a leak , matrix etc
 
It's likely to be water come through A pillars. There is a leak point under the screen trims. Mine was all sealed in, so didn't leak.

phheeeewwww , on checking along the door, lifted the trim and can see the wires in the well, but its full of water

how did u seal it please

thinking of lifting out the passenger seat , lifting the loom out of the well and water, so i can then ensure no water is getting into the loom

found a sensor by the passenger seat belt

wondering if there's a drain point in the floor, but got to take the seat out

as it's not going to go away and need to get the water out
 
It's often caused by the screen trims not being replaced when the screen is changed Gary. If a new screen is fitted, new trims need fitting too. Often the old trims are refitted, which then leak water in.

Take out the carpets for proper drying. Dry the floor, then pour water on the screen trims, starting at the bottom. Move up the pillar until you see water enter the car. That will prove where it's coming from.
