Happy Sunday all,
I have just unplugged the rf receiver on my P38 as I think this is causing my battery drain. However when I go to start the car I get engine disabled. Is this normal!. On Plugging it back in all works again. Help please!
A
think you might have unplugged the wrong wire. just remove the blue one (i think) and try it again
Yup,
try disconnecting the single, blue wire that runs from the unit up to the window. This is the aerial connector.
I was advised to disconnect the whole unit. The drivers door central locking has never worked off the remote, but does off the key. I was led to believe that the rf receiver would keep sending signals to the BECM as there is something up with the central locking on this door. Would simply disconnecting the antenna resolve this?
What MY is your P38.if it has "friendly resync" then you have to have the receiver working.
Yeah but if you unplug the lot the car won't work. Just the blue will do it. You need a new door lock.
New Rf receiver as well as it's probably that that killed the central locking motor.Blue is unplugged, new lock time then, thank god they are cheap! Ridiculously so for a P38!!
