Welcome to the club , the club of of duff onboard computers that is :unsure: ! my manual 51 plate 2.3 ghia has the same issue onboard computer just died although the stereo is fine , hopefully the fact your stereo has gone also may suggest just a fuse gone with any luck . If you ever get to the bottom of the fault pleae post your findings . Sorry i cannot be of any help.

Glad it's sorted.

 

Rule 1 - RTFM.

Rule 2 - Occam's razor.

 

Bleeno will know what I mean.

What fuse did you replace to get your onboard computer working ? With ref to your stereo i removed mine last week to sort out a rattling from behind when i refitted it it was totally dead , i checked all the plugs at the rear and they were ok i then removed every fuse in the box and refitted , the bloody stereo came alive and has been ok since ? dunno who put these gals together but there are so many stupid faults never mind the air con and cruise control issues . Anyway glad you got your computer back very jealous.
