aha AH4215K602BC

Just noticed the title. I didn't think CANBUS came in until 2006? Storey Wilson has Allcomms up to 2006 and then his 4DCAN software after that.

Right, I've had a look at both mine and MrGorsky's doors and there's a difference; I think I have a duff microswitch, even though the central locking works. From memory, more than anything else ... The lock actuator on the driver's side has 3...

40 years. I just have to keep mine alive for another 10 years. I think it is trying to kill me though so it might have to be my son that sees it happen.

Yeah, I just remembered, only applies after 2006.

or its not accepting the replacement BCM due to a mismatch of serial numbers

The P38A is not OBD2 compliant, even though it has an OBD-like 16 pin socket. It is certainly way before CAN-BUS. You could probably work out the location of the WABCO ECU pins from RAVE or from the Nanocom manual from Black-Box solutions but I...

Blimey, good work. I'd put everything back original to get out the rabbit hole you were in. Then you xan start on the original problem.

Think all the P38As are about £360 a year for VED.

Think my last microswitches came out of an MGF of the same year.

Ah. Not sure my door microswitches are working properly so that's probably out. I might have a play with MrGorsky's car or even try to find a battery with enough juice to have a play on the scrapper and see what those switches do. If Datatek is...

First time reversing down the dark drive 6.30am this morning and...wow..bloody brilliant, so much better and safer. Bulb out warning is still gone too. This is with the two original rev lights with led bulbs still fitted.

Mines Alveston red which does look brighter

I'm going to guess very flat Rioja Red. Mine looks way sparklier.

If the plate on the slam panel says 601 it is rioja red

I might try entering it via the Nanocom and then trying key #4 at the weekend.

Maybe. All I can say is, entering the EKA has worked maybe a dozen times vs 0 for any other method I've been told about.

No, genuine mk 3 receiver bought before prices got really silly.

I've had that happen, let the pads wear too thin and pistons tend to stick in the caliper, once new pads are in no more binding after, freeing the pistons that is.

Well, the mystery deepens. Went out, re-enabled the immobiliser, wrote settings, cleared RF memory (again), shut down. Went out, pressed the lock button to lock ... and the bloody thing locked. Pressed unlock and it unlocked! No syncing...

Already tried that when i was bored yesterday

Took the wheel off this evening and undid the caliper. Didn't look too bad but pads were worn through. Swapped pads for some old ones cadged off MrGorsky. Strangely I had new front ones in stock but no rear ones; clearly I was planning on...

Try putting the old one back. Might have jigged something?

Plug it in, plug it in!

oooh, my delivery will be here soon. what do you think, just plug it in!? do you think the car will suddenly communicate!?

Some Ford's also have it I believe. I wonder which cretin thought that was a good idea?

Operated for short periods and stopped for many years :(. I removed the central crankshaft bolt to extract the chain sprocket, which I will replace. For the closing I stick to RAVE (100nm + 60°+60°+30° ☠️). As you say, the oil pump is driven by a...

RIP Fella.

Already tried clearing RF memory. iirc I think Dan ended up fitting a refurbed switch from Marty.

All doors unlocked I've got Right cdl ground Left cdl ground Right key switch 12v Left key switch 12v. Door locked with key I've got All the same except right cdl goes to 12v but returns to ground when key returned to the central position. Hope...
