is that the fuses under the bonnet or the ones on the drivers seat?

thermal switch ordered so will update once I have fitted it.

Thermal switch ordered and will update once fitted.

Not yet...trying to get this working first before I decide to do that...loads of people pm'd me saying it was pointless laying out money till I get this sorted and see what faults it throws up..

same problem as me...I can get pump to work from direct power feed but wont work from inside....you can download free software providing you have the correct cable but wammers has a guide on here..im up to the point where I have the software and lead but think something is wrong where my obd...

Right update...tried several times this morning to get laptop and software to work..epicfail..plugged it into my other p38 and works fine so I know lead and software are ok....so I must have a problem where the lead plugs into the car...what am I looking out for and how do I get behind the plug...

That's what I am using...I had it working the first time I ever used it but now it wont..anyway ive had a day off from it so going to crack on again today..just waiting for the laptop to charge up and see what happens.

I have got 2 cables which I know has worked on another computer and a p38. I have dug a bit deeper with the drivers in my computer..i have deleted and reinstalled the drivers plus there is a setting where you can adjust the comm port settings to help with connection problems so will have...

I put the other post on to see if anyon]e local could shed some fresh light on it.. I do keep trying the software to see if I can get it to sync up with the ecu to no avail. I do have another fully functioning p38 suspension on the other p38 but fee reluctant to swop any other parts around in...

Well have tried my eas software again today and it will not read the ecu..just comes up 'no idle'. tried 4 or 5 times..it did work the other day but I tried another ecu on it to see if would make any difference and it didn't so I put the old one now and now I cant connect to the...

Going to have a look at that again today..the lead and software worked the other day but would not work yesterday..it initialised but I got 'no idle' and a load of 28 and 80 messages.

ive sent you a pm...don't know if you got it or not?

so to recap then...the heigh switch will work to let the suspension down and the level lights are working but obviously no message going up to the compressor to work...so fitting a thermal switch will rule that out...how do I backtrack from there?

you could be right about the thermal switch so going to order one and bite the bullet and take the compressor off.

if anyone is near the durham area who could help me....it must be something stupid..anyone got a proper plug in diagnostic tool to help me?

I have already got the software but cant get suspension to work from the software so looking for someone who is within driving distance to help me out.

Ive swopped the relay in the fuse box and is still the same. just so im on the same wavelength can you confirm that if I take the relay out which terminals do I use to bridge. the way I get the pump to work at the moment is the positive wire near the pump. The height light inside inside is...

Any member who lives in the north east that could help me solve my suspension problem and who has a eas kicker or a proper p38 diagnostic equipment who could help me out I would be grateful...

Right decided to go outside in the dark with my lamp...I stripped a bit of the wire back..i started the car and ran a wire directly from the earth on the battery and the pump did not run...starting to run out of ideas now.

Champion..i will try that in the morning and will let you know what happens..
