Thank you.. Glove box out tomorrow
My fella thinks i am mad
(independence eh lol)


Please play nicely. No one wants to listen/read a keyboard warriors rants....
Hi,
Can anyone please tell me where i should start looking? or if there is any test procedure (test points) that i can follow / check (im quite competent with a multimeter).
Problems which occur are :-
Heater stopped working (blower) all controlls make noises but no air, then works sometimes when it feels like it. (checked skuttle it was blocked a while ago but cleaned it)
Sunroof opening on its own (just found out i need to clean the switch, gonna do that this weekend)
Back drivers side window and front passenger side window opened on its own (twice)
Alarm kept going off, found out one of the dogs had scraped the back window sensor, bypassed that and it was fine for a while. Then all of a sudden door wont lock with the key and when it did alarm went off. now i have to lock the car from the back door (to the front from inside to stop the alarm going off)
the last thing which is strange, my stereo code went into SAFE 6 months ago, got it decoded yesterday, put it back in and it all seems to work (radio display signals etc) and CD does its thing, but no audio.
The car only got 41k miles on it from new. Its a Omega 2.6 CDX V6 Auto Estate on a 03 if that helps?
Can anyone tell me where i should start please?
Thanks in advance
Jane
Sounds like your battery maybe on its way out or have you discounted it recently?
[/color]I have not disconnected it, not sure if vauxhall do when they service it or not[/color]
Heater - Try a CC Panel Reset, press and hold two buttons, but I cant remember which ones of the top of my head, someone will confirm no doubt.
Done that one already a few weeks ago, it resets as it should but still no difference
Sunroof and windows do a complete full re cycle of Sunroof and all windows - fully open each window and close and hold the button down for around 5 seconds each way after open / closing do the same for Sunroof, Open, tlit, slide etc.
Thank you, i will go do that one now
Alarm, could be Power Sounder on its last legs, see FAQ or Maintenance guides, or Bonnet Switch or just your Dog as you say.
I don't think its the power sounder, i have read up on them.. i think mot these faults are connected somehow
Door Lock, Key or Fob?
Thought that too, so i got my other key and it did the same, replaced batteries in one of the fobs just incase also, no joy
Audio are all the connection fully home on the back?
Yup tried that. I am about to go pull the cage out and check the speaker connectors for the right ohm's to see if i can see anything before i start ripping wiring apart
