I have select to neutral on my dash and the gearbox lights are flashing all the time any ideas

Did you try to go over the "H" gate for low?

What position is the actual selector in when you see this message?

Try moving all the way up and down a few times with the selector.

Yes the carpet is damp.someone has taken a screw out of the windscreen plenim.how does the



What item does the damp affect.i have a windscreen plenim screw missing water penatration the one on the drivers side is half screwed out as well.
Damp in the car can potentially affect anything electronic. Damp in the drivers footwell commonly affects the BECM causing many different faults. You need to get the car dried out in order to make progress. You also need to fit the plenum screws with a good coat of silicone mastic on the threads as they are a common leakage point.

I do agree

You didn’t say if you tried to move it to “low” across the gate.

does it still drive?

edit , don’t do it, it was a question if you HAD tried it and now you get the message.

Padding in the footwell can hold gallons if it’s been getting in a while. Easy to see if you pull up the carpet plus you can feel the weight, it’s pretty light when dry.

I had same issue with water getting in, I removed the scuttle under the windscreen removed wiper motor assy, removed both the plastic air intake housings from the bulkhead underneath these is a foam gasket which had deteriorated, after cleaning the areas and components I resembled it all using Tiger Seal in place of the failed gaskets and replaced all the screws with stainless steel, new cabin filters fitted and leaks is sorted. I had a few of the screws holding the plastic housing shear off but the tiger seal being an adhesive sealer has them securely fixed
