Omega General Help / Airbag light on the Estate
« on: 13 August 2006, 16:44:55 »
Just spent 30 mins playing with the Estate instrument bulbs.
There has been a failed handbrake bulb for a some time so fixed that, noticed also that the airbag light bulb was missing (I cant believe that I missed this before!)
So, fitted a new one and replaced the handbrake warning bulb and hew presto.....the handbrake light was on.
Connected the cheap tech2 up and read the fault codes.....
Airbag Indicator lamp voltage low (fairly obvious given that there was no bulb!)
Airbag ECU not present
The last one is an odd one and can indicate that somebody has powered the system up with the ECU half disconnected (plug half removed) and the bulb failure does not keep the check lamp illuminated (its one of the only airbag self reseting codes).
So checked the connections and reset the codes.....all is now well.
The key thing here is that the cheap Tech2 is clearly more than happy to work with the airbag and engine.....plus a few other systems.

Omega General Help / An interesting find
« on: 28 July 2006, 21:47:58 »
Been fitting new front wheel arch liners to the estate this evening and found an unusual add on under the front wheel arch above the self leveling pump...
Lets just say it makes a familiar get out of the way type noise when you apply 12 volts!
dare I connect it back up again!

Omega General Help / Nearly there - Project Nova Replacement
« on: 11 July 2006, 17:01:08 »
Well, its nearly done.
Tomorrow it gets a new windscreen fitted and then on Thursday its MOT time.
Today the Nova is having its last ever drive to work (9 years almost to the day since its first!) before it gets taken away on Thursday evening for pastures new (a run around, XE conversion or destined to be a washing amchine, who knows!).
The cat has been fitted, a headlight washer is being borrowed for the MOT and it now has 3 electric windows (still awaitng delivery of the loom for No 4).
Then its 3.0 goodness for me!
