sounds good to me stirling services any dates for that suits me

hi all as anyone else had this problem that I have sometimes the lights flicker on and off or go dull or bright on my electric window switches it happens with all four switches at the same time its nightmare am thinking it might be a bad earth or is there some kind of control module I was thinking main relay for the windows maybe I had a look in my Haynes manual to see were a relay is but it useless please help cause when I can put the windows down great but when it rains lol .     

I finally found the problem I noticed when I open and closed the passenger door the lights flickered on and off so a thought wait a minute I checked the door pin switch on the a pillar a found that was corroded so changed that for a later 2 wire rubber covered one cause the early one has a single wire with a plastic pin and also took off the multi plug on the door and found 3 corroded connections so cleaned them and checked the 2 long black multi plugs behind the passenger plastic kick panel found a slight bent pin fixed that so hey presto all is working fine the way it should .

hope this helps other members on here . 

Is this to fit, or supply and fit?

Best bet would be to ring them, and mention OOF

You need to get a code reader on it and get the stored codes before anything else

Picked up a 68000 mile Omega on an x plate as scrap, wasn't going to scrap it in any case, but the missus drove it back from Weymouth and it was faultless.


Chucked it in for and MOT and it sailed through.


Guy came to buy it, had money in his hands, but when he took it for a test drive, gearbox went into limp mode, throwing up a warning light on the digital display.


So, can only change gear if you do it manually, switch off and turn engine back on, and it clears the light, gearbox back out of limp mode.


checked fluid, didn't look too clever, so fresh filter and fresh fluid.  car is fine for 30 miles or so, but again, damnd thing went into limp mode.


driving up a small incline, not pushing the car hard, all of a sudden its like its gone into neutral, engine revs climb up rapidly until at some point box sorts itself out and transfers power again, but throws it into limp mode.

engine off and on again, and its out of limp mode.

any ideas?  bloke is wanting to come back to it tomorrow and I thought the problem was sorted.

Thanks Dean

Did anyone get a chance to check the video

Reversed up the drive earlier on when close to the wall they where beeping 

But once everything was clear there was a constant beep 100% sure nothing in the way ?

Ok thanks for the posts
