Reading MarkDTM's excellent guide to fault codes, code 56 is Idle air control Voltage high.

http://www.omegaowners.com/forum/YaBB.pl?num=1207565474

Thats what i make it out to be too..Know whats the remedy..

I'd start with the wishbones and see if that clears it.  

I am already looking for a replacement..Once a car breaks down on me once its time for it to go..

Start by checking cabling to the IACV, make sure its plugged in properly too otherwise could be its knackered.

I have been told it could be a relay, trouble is which one..Anyone identify relay M33 i think it was,,Does this make sense to anyone.

[Baron Von Spongebob]

Does anyone know where the relay is for the ICV.?

[Marks DTM Calib]

Does anyone know where the relay is for the ICV.?

There is no relay for the ICV, its directly controlled by the ECU!

And M33 is the idle valve!

There is a main supply relay which is K42 but, this also switches the supply to the injectros and a whole host of ther stuff.

As a little test, if it i the idle valve, then applying a small amount of throttle will work around it....

[Baron Von Spongebob]

I have plenty of throttle and revs but, When i rev it the fuel and temp gauges go to zero..

On tickover all is fine but give it throttle aand the ABS light comes on and needles drop to zero, also automatic gearbox is showing on display.

It was running ok when i parked it up last night.

I'd check what happens to the battery voltage when you rev it. Sounds like something is happening to the supply for instrument panel, ABS and Autobox to get the hump at the same time.

Thats why i thought it might be the alternator.

I agree with Kev - as per my initial post.

Sorry my DSL died earlier mate.. we can still have a chat about it if you need a hand!

Or the regulator..

[Darth Loo-knee]

Have you managed to sort out your problem Spongebob?

[Darth Loo-knee]

Had a problem with a Rangey Alternator a few years ago, something was allowing the current to go back up to the instrument panel.... but cant remember exactly what the problem was, regulator or diode..
Got a new alternator and it cured the problem

[Baron Von Spongebob]

Searching for an alternator as we speak..

[Darth Loo-knee]

Let us know how you get on mate....

On the Old Rangey we had when we turned the car off and took out the key the battery light used to come on :-?
But the new alternator did cure it something to do with current going up the D+ wire when it shouldn't

[Baron Von Spongebob]

Just an update for those thats interested,,,Car is fixed.

As i suspected a faulty alternator..

Thanks for your input everyone..
