sounds like a bad earth.

HI

Thanks for offer,might sound stupid question but do you know how to use it and read any fault codes etc, i have never used one butits worth a try to sort car out.

can you email me direct SIMONM5@SKY.COM with your mobile or contact number so we could arrange something please

thanks again.

Would doubts any faults would be found this way, good old auto electrics is required.

I agree with Jeff, i dont think consult will find anything, its used mainly for engine diagnostics rather than an electrical fault with fuses and lights.

 

No power steering indicators?

 

Reverse lights most likely a bad earth, but also check the rear light control unit in the drivers side rear cluster panel. All the cables for the rear lights go to the black box, also make sure it is clipped in place on the panel rather than hanging down, it can be prone to water damage like mine was. Also check that the reverse switch plug or wires are not damaged at the gearbox end.

Use a multimeter on the bulb holder, put it in reverse and see if you get voltage, Also check the bulbs are ok.

 

 

 

Seat belt warning light, if all else fails take the bulb out, its no big deal anyway.

there used to be a good car elec placew behind the vw garage in hedgend just off the roundabout coming from westend towards botley hope that helps
