A Vx dealer? :-? :-?

[RobG]

Don`t stock them Lizzie

Don`t stock them Lizzie

What!!!

Never realised that!!  How about local auto electrical factor firms?

[TheBoy]

there was a supplier, but think they stopped.

Batteries not user servicable part, so Vx do not stock. You are supposed to change entire PS

Just remembered Rob that when I lived in Thornbury I used a great auto parts, electrical and accessory shop** in Patchway, just off the A38 next to the Filton airfield, north of the main Vx dealer Patchway Cars.

If they are still there, may be worth a try?  So often I would get bits and pieces from then that Vx couldn't supply.

**EDIT:  Just remembered I think they were called Patchway Auto Parts?? :-? :-?

just read billy no mates thread and got a new sounder you could pm him to see where he got one from  

[Entwood]

New power sounder for a facelift from VX is £57.70 +VAT (not a TC item but you might get a bit off ..  did   )

Apparently the new part no is: 09 194 455

Try here as I have ordered 4 for the spare PS I have and a defunct one from the other half Vx Astra. Its on the list of jobs to do tho'. I have dismantled them and they match but just haven't got round to soldering them in.

If you look at my pics in the "test zone" the batteries weren`t soldered in, just ni-cad button cell :-/

[3.2omegaestate]

Sorry, both of my PS batteries are soldered in. Should have looked before I fired off the reply.

[RobG]

No probs matey

This cell is a non PCB mount equivalent of those, in the power sounders that I have. Could you make up a small external battery pack with two of these batteries in series and wire it into the power sounder in place of the two button cells.

Just a thought.
