Another CEM failure. Most likely. Sorry, it will cost a lot...

you may also want to try unpluging the green connection block behind the radio display and then plug it back in. You can get to it by removing the cover that is infront(engine side) of the waterfall.
Also are you sure the indicators weren't working, they could have been working but not making any noise and not flashing in the display.

ive plugged it into the scanner and the only fault that came up was "ambient air temperature" we also reset the service indicators. the car has been absolutley fine today and it was yesterday. ive a feeling that this problem may come back when it rains. i think its water getting into the cem. |
