Omega General Help / Re: Ghost Pump Noise! This will tests a few peoples knowledge
« on: 06 August 2020, 17:12:49 »Have seen cars where they've literally cut the pipes next to the shocks and pulled the fuseJonny,
great, makes sense. The self levelling has been removed as it has sports suspension now but would make sense that the pump is trying to put more air in. It was supposed to be disconnected but i suppose they could have not done so or if they left the wire in but not connected water could be bridging the gap?
Fuse seems to be a simple fix as if it is that then I don't need it.
Would it defo come on even if the car is off?
Thanks
Dean
If the self levelling has been removed, it would be unusual not to disconnect or remove the compressor completely. If you dont have the s/l shocks, and the compressor is still connected, surely you would have heard it running continuously as the system would be 'asking' for air all the time.
I'd stick your head under the front end of the f/o/s wheel arch liner to see what, if anything, is still there of the s/l system.
Stripping the system out completely actually requires effort...

Most fuses on the Omega power more than one circuit.
Better off pulling the relay from the fusebox under the dash. One of the small black ones iirc

Indeed
Pretty impressive hole next to the silos... Has the makings of a nice lido once they tidied up.

Do it forwards and do it properly 
you won't reverse fast enough to get the abs to work, if it even works in reverse...
Besides, better to find out if the abs is working (or not) before you need it in anger.
Pedal trick won't show abs codes, so you'll need a tech 2 or at least something that might read them...

Possibly. Get the codes read as it could be something else...
What happens if you stand on the brakes at 20-30 mph?
Obviously expect the unexpected when you do this as it will highlight weak bushes as well.

I don't know how long Aaron had driven with a failedoil cooler, but that's how many flushes it took.
Also make sure the climate/heater control is set to Hi, fan off. This ensures that the heater matrix is also flushed through.

Two dish washer tabs in the top hose. Fill with distilled water. Run until the fans kick in twice.
Drain from bottom hose.
And repeat. Twenty* times.
That's not an exaggeration.
