Omega Electrical and Audio Help / Engine managment

« on: 16 June 2009, 18:03:26 »

Hi
My 2.5 v6 has stopped working. It first blew its oil pump so needed a new lump. having replaced it with a good runner you would hope everything would be ok. Not so, since putting the new engine in the engine managment light will not work. I have been through all the connections time and time again. The car has also been to Vauxhall who stated it could be anything and they would play with it at £60.00 per hr. I have removed the instrument binical to check the connections and bulb. I am now at a loss to see where to go next does anyone have any ideas.

cheers

Thanks for the help.
I do not know if the arm had come adrift as someone had been in there before me and removed the motor.
Good job I am breaking a 1998 CDX.

Omega General Help / Heater Problems

« on: 21 January 2009, 12:22:33 »

 I have a 2001 2.5 v6 estate.
The heater does not make any adjustments in temp on the near side when used.
All I get is cold air from all outlets on the near side.
The drivers side works fine.
I have the center of the dash removed and also the glove box.
Having spoken to Vauxhall they tell me to bang the heater box as a flap may be stuck (did not work).
Anyone any ideas where to go next.
Cheers

Have done the paper clip test and the results are

Each set of numbers came up three times per rotation.
When the light flashed four times there was a pause and then another four.

Omega General Help / New Engine

[size=14] ::)Hi
I have just fitted a replacement engine in my 2001 2.5 cdx. All the sensors, wiring loom, diss unit etc fitted from original engine. Replacement purchased from a reputable salvage dealer with guarentee. Inspected car the engine came from (1999).

The problem is it will not start. The engine turns over no problem, there is fuel, pulled a plug lead and there was no spark.
Could it be the alarm/ immobiliser or something completely different.
I have been playing with these cars for years and done a number of engine transplants but never had this problem before.[/size]

Cheers
