Funny the guy that did the gearbox said it could be that. They do seem to follow the selector accurately, but . . . . .
And this may be a big BUT. . . .
a day or two before the fuse went all the led's lit up when I was going from N to R, this has also happened a day or two before the first time I lost the radio and dash (but the fuse must have melted itself together)
It was raining here about two weeks ago, we had bad flooding and I towed my bro in law out of a rather deep puddle lol, auto box went a few days after that, so maybe there still might be a little water somewhere??
Problem is I have a slipped disc and can't get under the car at the mo
I just did a quick voltage check, engine not running, 12.4v at battery, engine running - 14.13 at battery, at fuse 14.13, put car into gear, 14.12, put it into neutral, 14.13. . . .
Ok, have done a bit of research through the TIS2000 software and with the Haynes manual and I have discovered that this is fuse FV6 which, has a direct feed to/from the Auto Transmission ECU. Now, I mentioned that the auto box had been changed at the start of this thread, and that the gremlins have only started from the gearbox replacement.........
That just makes matters worse! Lol! I've put a new fuse in it, and based on what your saying it should have popped? To date, it isn't even showing signs of discolouration?
This fuse seems to be tied into the head unit, instrument panel, heater controls, hazard lights(as they didn't even work) interior lights and headlights, as these all failed when the fuse melted into oblivion!
