OK folks a few months ago I had airbag fault, the autologic connected no trouble but Saturday car all of a sudden dropped lights flashing so I slowly drove the 26miles home then a mile from home I got eas fault 35mph max and I cannot clear it.
The problem was a broken o ring in compressor which kept it running all way home I fixed that and I tripped pump for 5 minutes 1ce and over last 3 days it lifts in seconds to maximum but still same fault so I'm assuming compressor and valve block are working.
I stripped glovebox and footwell and plastics to passengers seat all I found bad was the white plug so I cut it out and cut back all cables past the black part and reconnected, I checked for continuity and got it I also check the obd socket for corrosion and continuity and that was good, diagnostic fuse is OK but it just will not connect to clear, I did pull relay under passengers seatand that threw up a dash error and even run a cable from grey/red cable on relay to obd grey/red and nothing.
I tried with eas unlock and did get it to say good idle everytime now it won't and when it did I just got fe or pp in rx box, the ports were set correct so I got a eas unlock dongle from a mate who has used it a few times on his 38 and works but on mine the led stays on about 5 seconds then off for 10 then back on constantly but does nothing.
Also there is a smell at fusebox like burning and when I removed maxi fuses the abs and eas were yellow on terminals, I've cleaned them had a good look around best I could but no change
Any tips now greatly recieved as I really don't want to get rid, TIA
