    Diesel Glow plug light flashing

    Camera is connected at the reverse light bulb, haven`t touched the sensors with the camera. Camera was working fine for a couple of weeks then I had a go at fitting LED indicators, stop & tail, and side lights and then it started. Seems more than a coincidence I know, but I put the ordinary...

    Yeah I`ll have a root around tomorrow. Can`t think how there would be a short somewhere though.

    Diesel Glow plug light flashing

    Thats why I went to see him. I asked about the folding mirror mod when we met at oldham for the wheel alignment meet and we finally managed to get together and sort it today, works a treat. unfortunately it took so long sorting it that we didn`t really have time to have a look at the other...

    Reinforcements have arrived. Geordie Dave, remember him, the electronics wizard, has offered to have a gander at my electrical expertise (or lack of). I`m seeing him on Wednesday

    Diesel Glow plug light flashing

    They were on the car when I bought it and I think they are factory fit or at least fitted by a dealer. I have just fitted a reverse camera, so maybe I`ve dislodged some of the wiring for that when I`ve been fitting my LEDs

    Diesel Glow plug light flashing

    It gets curiouser and curiouser. I`ve just been out to the car and no warning lights, it seems to have cleared itself but I swapped the brake light bulbs anyway and everything was still ok. I needed to move the car so put it in reverse and straight away the glow plug light starts flashing again...

    Diesel Glow plug light flashing

    Don`t know if this would cause a problem but I think I may have fitted an LED bulb to the stop/tail that is designed to replace a single filament bulb (how do you tell?), namely this one:-...

    Diesel Glow plug light flashing

    problem is back again it has to be a problem with the leds. car runs fine but glow plug light flashes. one thing i have noticed is the warning buzzer for the reverse sensors is making a strange faint rapid beeping instead of a loud single beep when i put it in reverse

    Diesel Glow plug light flashing

    I know just wish I could come up with a more plausible and definitive reason for it. Scary though at first, thought my wallet was going to take a kicking

    Diesel Glow plug light flashing

    Just looking for reasons why this happened Fahad and exploring all possibilities. Like I said the car never went into limp mode and ran normally so in my own mind I can only think something got its knickers in a twist with me pressing brake pedal, switching on lights and I think I stopped and...

    That is a good point but in my defence I did ask for no gherkins on my Big Mac meal

    Diesel Glow plug light flashing

    I agree it does seem weird but maybe the ECU is explaining the apparent fault caused by the LEDs by showing it as something to do with the switch, who knows. I`ve just been looking on Ebay at the same seller I bought my LEDs from and he is selling bulbs described as "No ECU error" here for...

    Diesel Glow plug light flashing

    All sorted. I took it to my mate who plugged in his Snap On Solus Pro code reader and would you believe it the only code it found was nothing to do with the fuel filter, fuel pressure or air in the system. It showed a fault with the brake pedal switch which he cleared. I drove the car home and...

    Diesel Glow plug light flashing

    Fahad, the manual says to prime the bulb until its hard, start the engine and run it at 1500 revs for about 30 seconds which should cure the air in system. Then to clear the flashing glow plug light start the car 3 times at 30 second intervals. And then helpfully, it says, if that hasn`t worked...

    Spare / Replacement Key

    I bought one of those flip keys from Ebay about 3 years ago and its still going strong. I didn`t get a transponder, I had to transfer it over from my Honda key. I managed to find a locksmith near me who could cut the supplied blank but it took a few attempts and quite a bit of grinding/filing to...

    Diesel Glow plug light flashing

    Thanks Nick. I`ve just found something in the manual (I was looking for info on changing bulbs believe it or not) and it explains how to clear air from the system and stop the glow plug light flashing and guess what...................... it didn`t work, so it seems there could be something a bit...

    Diesel Glow plug light flashing

    I`ve tried priming it but it makes no difference. Not sure if I`m doing it right though. Does the engine need to be running and do I need to disconnect any pipes. If the latter then its not a job for me, I`ll leave it for the professionals. I might have a look at the bolt you mention Nick but...

    Diesel Glow plug light flashing

    Hmmm I did have to brake hard when the tank was low but that was a good 2 hours before I filled up. When I did fill up I was a good few millimetres above the red

    Diesel Glow plug light flashing

    This has just happened to me. Flashing glow plug light and "Check System" warning in the display. The fuel filter was changed about 4 months ago by a mechanic friend with a genuine Honda part and I had just topped up with a full tank of V Power. I know you will all think "was it actually changed...
