It is only necessary to disconnect the earth terminal.

Measure the voltages on the output pins with a DVM.

Sounds like yet another one with a dodgy ignition switch.

Or use a solar panel and charge controller to keep the battery topped up as I do with all my vehicles.

As mentioned no battery set up on the 2005 car but 40 days without use will kill it stone dead. You mite get away with 3 weeks even then special programmes will be off until it reached full charge. Disconnect the battery next time and lock it...

Maybe key code?

No battery management on 2005 and that year is not set up for AGM batteries best stick to lead acid.

Mine would also be dead after 40 days without a charge.

You underestimate my ability to burn things..

Now fair enough you might set the car on fire with a plumber torch soldering tiny wires but you can get electric soldering irons now which would be a little safer or even small gas powered ones lol.

I put up pictures in a post maybe 12 years ago. Swapped motors over from an MGF lock of the same vintage as mine.

Had same on my Had same on my P38 SRS light kept coming on because of the connection so in the end I cut it out and soldered the wires together, end of problem.

Right so quick update - drove back from a cycle to the unit to dump the bike etc and had a quick nose under the seat to check which connector. Moved it slightly and now the SRS light is gone with no message either - so thankfully not the clock...

One would assume the correct side, on the right lol.

Driving with just one eye open then!

Maybe they have cataracts and can't tell the difference 🤔

Looking at the state of some people's screens on a frosty misty morning as drive to work/school run that's more than good enough to see out of !

Have a look down the side of the oil filter housing see if there's water in the V, I bought one those vacuum filling kits off eBay for another job and there's a pump in to pressurise the system that's how I found my leak turned out to be the stat...

No, it’s a main dealer one.

Not available on the 2009.

Go for the Gap it will do every thing you want and more, I have one for my 2008 it had drive away locking and one press on remote to unlock drivers door and double press for all doors when I got it and soon had that changed (cant be doing with it...

That's one thing on modern cars i really detest! Was so happy when i was able to turn it off

Thanks, fingers crossed, looking at insurance quotes now!

Best of luck with MOT after all that.

I want to report that the Traction Control light is out. Thanks again guys All your help has been very much appreciated, The lights are all working as they should Fault was an ABS sensor wasn't fully seated. MOT booked for Tuesday!

Might have a long wait for an answer, they've not been on since December 10 2018 !

@marjon So, the way it works. Starting with the car locked, EKA and immobiliser turned on. Unlocking with the FOB, a code is sent to the BECM, if the code is valid, the BECM unlocks the car and prepares to send the remobilisation code which...

Yes bud. I’ve cleared the fault code which showed up in the SAS, ABS, and air suspension modules. ABS lights came on but went off after a restart. Air suspension went up, down and then back to normal. Fingers crossed 🤞. Many thanks for all...

Didn't the poster have a problem with ABS kicking in?

They usually seize on with the heat.
