Hi,
I have just acquired an Omega Elite 2002 and have the xenon headlamp warning message. I havent got round to looking at the sensors yet but have no idea how to accept the warning and clear the message to read the display.
The factory stereo has been replaced (i believe there was a display button on there).
How else can I clear the message and access the other display details?
Thanks Toby

Fix the fault :)
Although, without the stereo, that display will be a PITA.
-
Ah, 2.6. Is it a MID? If so, S and R buttons on wiper stalk :y
-
Hi,
I plan to fix the fault shortly.
My stalk does have R and S buttons on the wiper stalk - perhaps been replaced. Are they easy to swap if I get a used replacement?
-
If you're asking whether the stalk is easily replaced, then yes. It's a gift :y
-
Well bought one from fleabay so now to find the instructions on the fitting - see whether that will help me able to use the display. cheers

What kind of display do you have?

looks like the bottom one

OK, no point getting a stalk with S and R
-
So can I only work the display if I get a new stereo and paired screen?

Yup.
Or change screen to a (later style) MID.
MID needs to be correctly programmed for car, would need a couple of wires running, and a wiper stalk with S and R
-
Wow this is complicated - not like the old blaupunkt in my W124 estate.
If I wanted just a standard factory fitted stereo that worked with a screen and would enable me to use the functions of the screen what model with screen should I be looking for and would I need the stalk too?

ncdr2013 with a GID, but already paired together

They are rare as hens teeth by the look of it- could a foreign one be made to display english?
Anything more available/basic work?

If you talking about a GID Display the language is set via the original Head Unit, NCDC range, as pointed out these are not Consumer swappable, as a security feature they are paired together (programmed to each other).
They do come up for sale now and then (NCDC plus GID, if thats what you did have) as taken out together from the donor Car, but without putting another spanner in the works, yours being an Elite would have been a Bose Sound version, so with an after market HU fitted have they tinkered with the rest of the original Bose Installation ie Amps, Wiring, Speakers and Sub Box?
If your happy with the noise your current stereo makes probably easier to convert your GID to a MID with some wiring changes and fit the Stalk IMHO.
