BigDog Posted February 4, 2013 Report Posted February 4, 2013 Hello, and welcome. Are you saying you bought the car as a non-runner with these faults or they happened only after replacing the engine ECU? The ABS pump running continuously is strange because both sides of the pump electrical supply come from the ABS controller according to the wiring diagram, and I would have thought having the ignition off should stop that. Check the battery fusebox for melt-down. Just a hunch, but do you know if this car has had flood-water damage? Matt Quote
jonnsal Posted February 4, 2013 Author Report Posted February 4, 2013 I bought it as non runner with ecu gone the car has not been flood damaged all I know is some mechanic said there's an abs pump behind the battery and its that that's buzzing all the time until I remove the fuse (30amp) in the fuse box next to the battery it still buzzing if there's no ignition on and I have sorted the hooter and indicators that was the dimmer switch for the dash lights as soon as I unplugged it replaced the fuse it was fine but still can't get the blowers to work Quote
jonnsal Posted February 4, 2013 Author Report Posted February 4, 2013 There is two thick wires going to the fuse box in under bonnet that have no plastic casing It dont look like its melted just looks like something has chewed it but was just going to chop it and replace it tomorrow Quote
BigDog Posted February 4, 2013 Report Posted February 4, 2013 I'm not sure about the ABS, could be controller but I dont' want to send you down the wrong path. Have you got the ABS warning lamp lit with the engine running and the ABS fuse in or out? If the blower is not working on any speed, check fuse then motor. The blower motor is easy to access after you remove the lower glovebox. I suggest you take out the wiring connector and run a pair of wires from the battery direct to the motor to see if it's Ok. If it runs then check the voltage at the wiring connector and investigate the switch. If it doesn't run, the whole blower motor twists out after you press a plastic latch. When you put the glove box back there is a little gear assembly you need to re-engage in the right side which makes it glide down instead of drop. For the auxiliary heating there is loads on the FAQ section. Quote
jonnsal Posted February 4, 2013 Author Report Posted February 4, 2013 The abs light is on with fuse in or out was told it might be a sensor or abs modul and abs ecu a guy is doing the wheel bearing in the morning so will get him to check that for me it's just really puzzling me Quote
jonnsal Posted February 4, 2013 Author Report Posted February 4, 2013 And the glow plug light flashes everyone and then and dash reads service workshop Quote
gregers Posted February 5, 2013 Report Posted February 5, 2013 do your brake lights work?and the constant running noise MAY be your run on pump. Quote
