SRS system fault(?) Plus a couple of dead bulbs...
Posted: Sun Aug 30, 2015 12:23 pm
Hi there,
I've had a read through the threads before on this, but one of the main problems with my celebration is the SRS dash light is up. I know the car was standing for 6 years before I bought it and drove it home and the guy did take off the battery and charge it up and put it back on, so I am assuming one possible cause for the light to be on is the fact that the battery went completely flat on the car? I think that's the gist I got reading the threads before, should I try disconnecting the negative on the battery and leaving it for a while to see if this clears the fault?
Also, the bulb inside the ignition barrel is dead. Is it just a case of removing the cowling, or does the barrel have to come out too?
And lastly, does the gear indicator on the auto 'box have some kind of bulb or illumination? There isn't in mine (or it's dead if there's supposed to be one), and I was just wondering if there is a bulb in the centre console somewhere for it?
And as a bonus; neither of the heated seats work at all. Both of the switches light up when activated but neither seat gets any warmer whatsoever. Could it be a fuse? Or is it more likely to be one of those broken wires in the seat I've read about in other posts?
Many thanks for your help and patience in advance! it is greatly appreciated
