Ok boys n' girls she is not fixed
The faults she left me with last year, are still showing.
Faults :
Key won't turn more than a couple of mm. Takes several attempts before she finally allows me to turn key, to start ignition.
Electrics won't play on start up, includes but not limited to, memory settings for seats & telescoping steering wheel*, electric windows, heated seats, EAS**, stereo.
Power Steering doesn't work immediately.
* seats and telescoping will work manually
** EAS either pings up with Inactive, or, no warning but control dial has no lights.
Actions taken:
Sent to garage , garage did following to remedy above
New key barrel
New battery
Got her back drove her home. Within a couple of weeks issues start showing again. I don't do a lot of mileage, so checked with garage was it a strong enough battery. Told yes.
So we get to the start of this thread.
Yesterday, new alternator and new battery. All problems go away.
Today, all are back, with a vengeance.
New problem with Stereo Head Unit: Menu is not allowing access to On-board Computer option.
Music is intermittently not playing.
I still can't get to usual garage, so trying to resolve from here.
I was bouncing ideas with local guy and he has suggested key issues might be some type of lock on brake pedal, not picking up a signal? Is this a possibility?
As for the rest of the issue anyone got any ideas?
