Omega General Help / Gear selector lights up like a Christmas tree
« on: 23 February 2010, 22:32:25 »
Dear Omega gurus, I need you.
When I start up my 2.6CDX, 50/50 all the lights on the gear selector come on too. After 10 seconds or so I then get two orange lights on the dash, engine management + traction control. It still drives but it's in some weird default mode where you can't feel it change gear - acceleration is very poor and that's bad news at difficult junctions. Like I say, 50/50. Some journeys it will be absolutely fine from start to finish. Local garage (not Vauxhall specialist) is baffled. I won't use the Vauxhall dealer due to astronomical £1920 repair bill the last time (another story). Thanks for any wise words.
