Omega General Help / Non Start - Sometimes !!

« on: 06 September 2009, 19:04:13 »

Good job I wasn't going to Newent, the bloody meega wouldn't start on Sat morning.  Called Green Flag, we both went through everything together, he tried an OBD II, wouldn't connect !  Three quarters full of fuel, the starter was turning over no probs there,  so, battery in good order, no spark and no smell of fuel at the tail pipes.  He locked the central locking and unlocked it about five times, then it bloody started as if it had never had an issue...  it ran sweet too, no evidence of flooding at all.  Immobiliser ??

Any suggestions  :question

Omega General Help / Glove Box

« on: 20 October 2009, 20:01:35 »

Where the bloody hell are the fixing screws that hold the glove box hinges on, my catch mechanism is Donald Ducked, so I need to fit a second hand lid.
Anyone had any dealings with this before?

Other than going around disconnecting the multi plugs, not really, maybe you could make it to one of the next meets, not sure when there is one, but, worth considering..

I think I've got the gist of your post!
It's a fair current needed to pop a 30 amp fuse, perhaps remove some multiplugs from the compressor, then try, OK it won't work but if the fuse stays in you'll at least know if it's the coils on the clutch.  Failing that, it's going to be a case of disconnecting the air con controller too, that's the bit on the dash board.

Since when has this been happening?  i.e. have you trapped a wire on a loom when replacing something 

Think it's a "Retrace your steps" kinda thingy..

@ Albs
But Bosch and Vauxhall are both saying that the one I need doesn't exist :-/

The last one I changed was the rounded edged connector, it was from AutoVaux online, initially I gave my local VX dealer the engine number which said that it was the square one, so, I ordered the wrong one!!!!

When it came it was a Siemens unit......  don't know if that helps any.... DC

Heres a pic of the cs sensor plug, its on the pas. side

Thanks, that is the plug that I was playing with, it had fallen apart to a degree and I have put it back together. Is there an easy way of making sure that it is dry?

Is this sorted now then ?

Maybe, just maybe, someone with access to some secondhand spare bulbs, could get a bulb kit or two together for rental, that'll cover the HID problem, they could pay the postage and return them when done. 

A small price to pay if you blow an HID on the Continent  :-/
