    EAS conundrum

    Hi guys, I've had to abandon the 'fuse 9 failure' for a while as I've now got a hard fault on the EAS. Some time ago I had a problem with the EAS which turned out to be corroded wires. I fixed them and unlocked the EAS with EAS unlock. However I have another hard fault but cant get to...

    DESPERATE fuse 9 failure after door lock issues

    A quick update. I have just disconnected the battery and accessed the BECM. I removed the plugs and tested the continuity on both the Purple/blue and pruple/black leads on each plug C323 and plug 361 (bugger to get to, but managed carefully). Al l4 wires showed continuity from the plug to the...

    DESPERATE fuse 9 failure after door lock issues

    thanks guys. Previously I was geting continuity to both outstations, and voltage from both fuse 9 and 22 wires. After the fault I checked the fuse (fine) and the socket which shows it's still live. My worry is 'Why is there no power to 'either' outstation now. If it was a rogue wire I would have...

    passenger door open warning even though working

    Hi, I thought I had fixed the problem but a week later, it's returned. I cleaned the micro switches and everything was hunkey dorey until my son got in the front and slammed the door. I'm now sure it is the micro switch not sitting right, or damaged. I've looked everywhere for a replacement...

    passenger door open warning even though working

    thanks, i have a spare driver's door lock, would the switches be tranferable, or are they 'sided'? Before I take them both apart.

    passenger door open warning even though working

    Thanks, where should I be looking to find the microswitches? Are they the 2 green ones inside the lock? If they have gone, any suggestion on the best way to replace? Cheers yet again.

    Turbo failed

    Thanks, that might be it. It was absolutely baking across France, and the car had obviously cooled down before I started it again. Hope it's easy to get to as i currently have a slipped disc and dont relish the thought of bending double or twisting too much.

    Turbo failed

    there was like a rusty colour smoke, but only wen i tried to put my foot down on 'full' accelleration to try and get up the speeper hills. I'll check the hoses and look for damage, what i cant get is that once we had stopped for nearly an hour, it worked perfectly after that all the way home.

    Driver door locking problem

    Thanks again. Unfortunately my working knowledge of electrics are about as good as a penguin's. Sorry to be a pain but where can I obtain a 'Rave' manual, and what is a Nanacom? Anywhere on the forums that I can read that will take me step by step through the process?
