    /Engine electrics dead

    I have had vehicle from new, engine light deffo came on then went off on engine start before this fault, never noticed what is was doing when the fault was can only say it does not come on with ignition on and lambda disconnected

    /Engine electrics dead

    good call - no it doesn't come on when turning on ignition. So you suspecting the power for at least part of the ecu comes via the sensor and the fault is maybe further up the loom (or in ecu) when the sensor is connected

    /Engine electrics dead

    will check when start it later and let you know

    /Engine electrics dead

    seems reasonable which is why i say it could be upstream loom or ECU, fingers crossed

    /Engine electrics dead

    been to garage, it is lambda sensor relate, disconnected and the fuse no longer blows, new one on order must be that or the loom it connects Into or the ECU it feeds into. Driving at the moment with it disconnected. cheers dingdong
