sorry forgot to add no its not registering the high ratio on the dash, i have tried to swap it over to high and low loads of times but it just wont recognise the high ratio on the dash or the gear lever. thanks for replying

hi wills the gearbox lights are flashing on the low ratio side but there is no low or high on the dash, i have tried the usual stuff like resetting the becm but still nothing. thanks for your reply.

hi gents, i was driving my 1995 p38 4.6 auto to work down the motorway when it decided to go ino low ratio, as you can imagine i slowed down quite qiuckly o 50 mph, luckily i had my hand on the shifter and quickly put it in neutral, i took it to a garage and said it could be the filter in the...

hi guys, i have got the gearbox fault light come up on the dash. i know why and how i got it to come up. i was in a rush and put it in drive as it was still turning over. the usual trick of turning off engine and starting again allways got rid of it but now it is staying on. the green lights...

thanks garioch, looks like that was what i needed in the first place, i made one of them up from scratch, but due to me putting a dvd, tv, freeview it is not the same connection so i no longer require one.

hi chabrolly yes i managed to wire the sub as well i just connected them to the rear speakers for now. it is very clear and sounds even better with the new head unit, not that the original was bad but with the new stereos these days have graphic equalizers already built in. i have fitted my new...

hi just a quick note. you dont have enough power because you were going through the pre outs just like i did with the adaptor that i bought. like i said if you have a powerful stereo which most new ones already are then this is not a problem i first wired my kenwood mask into the car and hey...

most of the software are serial no calculators, on the head unit there is a long serial number and all you need is the last four numbers and press calculate,(ie clarion) but it depends on what make and model you have obviously, some might ask for the bar code, usually the bottom bar code number...

thanks for the reply but i have now fitted new stereo and working perfect, without changing the speakers and got rid of the intereference. one of the wires in the iso was not staying in properly on the adaptor. i had to throw that adaptor in the bin it was too quite even at full volume, not...

hi guys, my radio has packed up in my p38, it has the hardon kardon clarion stereo in it, i know the standard one is great, but i wanted to fit my tv dvd stereo instead. has anyone fitted a new unit without any hassle, i recently found a radio adaptor off the internet that was easy to fit to my...

hi nick, yes it stays up all night on standard, it has started to get worse the last couple of days, i have only had it for 2 weeks and it is on nearly all the time now, it is actually quite loud now, the compressor seems to be on all the time, i no little about these cars but i work on trains...

hi pockers just wondered what code software you have and if it is for a pu9863a - prc7618 i have same problem, i have loads of code software but i cant find one for my radio, i have over 40 programs for most vehicles i.e code calculators, memory dumps, serial calculators, any help i would be...

hi guys, question about my p38, my suspension seems ok i.e no warning lights but have noticed the compressor is working alot when in normal mode, it is not losing any air that i can tell i.e air bags not leaking and it seems to hold the air overnight, all other heights work fine and the...

i have checked the other doors and all seem ok, the wires seemed a bit brittle so i am now checking the earths e.t.c as far as i know the door is from new it is same colour as rest of car i.e not faded or different colour, i have managed to source a harness so i will look into replacing any...

thanks chabrolly, well the good news is that it seems to of fixed itself, the door opened and hey presto everything started working again, i had a good feel for the wires and it seems that the wires between the door and the body were all twisted so i am going to see if i can get the piece of the...
