got one, been there for 2yrs now, no issues. 200 is a lot cheaper than the 800 that the other ones used to cost anyway

dont think so but i have seen them popping back up for sale so its no longer a concern for now lol

cupholder spring thing broke, was just wondering how difficult it is to remove and repair/replace?

so basically stuck a known good genuine one and it works perfectly now. no wonder they call them ****part... incidentally my next job is to replace the 6m old britpart bushes

tried the direct earth and it did not make any difference, so im a bit at a loss, guess i will try to buy a new genuine one

Yes, changed the batteries in the fobs

A little update. Managed to source a new (britpart) module. It sort of works, as in it only works if the keys are within 1 foot of the module. Not sure if this is a feature of this britpart pos or i have bigger issues and the module is not getting enough juice. Tonight i will try an earth lead...

i will try to fetch a 3rd one, im still not convinced about the timing, seems too strange in my mind that it happened to break after i was working on the central locking

Rf test was unsuccessful with both receivers... I guess i have two lemons 😭

How do i run an rf test??

1. No, i had never tried it to be honest 2. I clean the contacts, so i hope so. Also it has ground with the bolt. 3. Yes, second and third all worked well before I know it looks like the receiver but what are the odds it chose the exact moment when i was fixing the latch issue to let go 😅😂

So, driver side key lock was not working. After i fixed it and was happy with being able to lock unlock the car manually from the handle, i found out the remote suddenly stopped working. Was working perfectly before and tried different keys. Central locking using the key at the handle and using...

thanks

yes, the other two wires in circuit 15 go straight to the blower unit in the rear, so that is why i feel i can safely assume. In Rave Circuit 15 is associated with ATC (airconditoning)

Going through the electrical connections again, i realized that on the same circuit on C0483 there is indeed a BG wire, so im hoping that it is a simple wire from the blower unit to this connector
