    Thinking the first step should be to check systems with a computer and the rf change is a given no?

    Granted the engine disabled problem was occurring intamitantly before the total silent treatment I'm getting now! Green sticker on my rf but feel this should be varifyed with a internal look due to eBay bandits!

    What else do you suggest it could be? I was thinking loss of power to the rf or the sync between the rf and becm dropping??

    Thanks guys, Just got off the phone with mozz, After trying to skin the cat several ways with no joy, he concludes that the sync from the becm to the ems has dropped. Anyone near Ringwood with a faultmate or Syncmate etc wanting to earn some beer tokens??!! I think the CL probelm is a...

    Think I need to check power to the rf and cl systems, any ideas on a suitable tester given the potential for future use on this baby!

    Yes this was the case with the original fob and although poking the contact back into the pcb got it working, it wasn't the end of the problem occurring so I bought a new one which is also fine (both led's light up)

    This also runs in at the same time as the CL broke down

    When message displays "Engine Disables" "Press Remote" after turning the key, the fob doesnt work in or out of the ignition......used to before the clean on and off as per the normal probem.

    Want to say a big that you to all that have tried to help so far;) All plugs checked and connected to both black box and amp....still no life! Battery is running radio, lights etc ok so am guessing there is enough to operate the CL and RF??

    Ah yes this makes sense black box is smaller and to the left of the blue amp right?

    Thanks Saint, Yes LEDs work on both old and new fob. Never unlocked using the key and have noticed that the problem occurred (before the recent detailers efforts!) when the car was being accessed/loaded for a prolonged period with the engine off and doors unlocked (passive I believe?) at this...

    Thanks for coming back to me,.. have pm'd mozz, yes, heve checked all the connections in the rear and even put the remote to the Rf. What do you think I should be paying for the latest Rf? Figured the EKA was down to a relay or micro switch prob:mad:
