Omega Electrical and Audio Help / Re: no radio and no diplay on 2001 omega estate

« on: 31 October 2011, 22:06:45 »

I had that when I took my dash apart recently.  The radio was only partially plugged back in.  I took out the radio and the cradle, made sure the radio was plugged into the cradle first and then put the cradle/radio back in place.  The radio was getting power, which was why it lit up, but because the display part wasn't plugged in I couldn't see it was in safe mode, which is why it didn't make a sound.

I had a look at the fuse and it looked intact.  I have driven the car and the power steering is still working, I believe that it is on the same fuse.  I have checked and rechecked the plug and it is as pushed in as I can get it, and the catch is pushed in as well.   

Is there a difference between the pre-facelift and mini-facelift hazard warning light switches?  I have discovered that without the hazard light switch in the indicators don't work.  Which is a shame...

So I have taken it apart again, it it is defiantly plugged it and still not working.  I assume I have broken it somehow.  Is the unit able to be unscrewed and replaced by another one, and if so does anyone have one for sale (preferably with all the lights working)?

I also seem to have broken my hazard warning switch, so if you have one of those as well I need that too...

Yes, as in I think I checked the obvious things, and wondered if there was something less obvious that I had missed...

Omega Electrical and Audio Help / Climate Control not working

So the climate control was working but all the lights were blown.  I followed the guide on this site to replace the lights, tried to turn it on and nothing happened.  I think I plugged it back in and I have checked the fuses, have I missed anything silly that I need to do to get it to turn on?

Today I made my first upgrade to the car, in infamous Caddy cup holder!

Also picked up some bulbs for the climate control dials and repair patched for the drivers side door stay.  I'll try and get some photos of the car up in the Omega Gallery soon.

I have just bought my first Omega, a 1999 2.5 Elite, so I thought I should join the forum.  Aside from a leaky Heater Bypass Valve (which seems to be a requirement on these cars), it's a lovely car to drive.
