omega V6 2.5 - Engine Man. lights on
« on: 12 November 2008, 11:26:28 »

Hi there,
this happened again on my 2.5V6 petrol .....I started the engine up from cold and the Eng Man light stayed on, so did the traction control light and also the seatbelt light came on and stayed on.
I had no computer feedback apart from a big 'F' on the display.......I had no rev counter, no fuel gauge, no temp gauge, no speedo (when moving), and no front elec windows...!!! whats going on as after a short time of driving like this i felt a sudden shudder and it all came back to life. This has happened since several times.....Im worried i cant go far b4 it goes ape totally...!!!

Any ideas guys??

First thoughts are an electrical issue possibly alternator.

Flash the ECU codes out of the engine and see what it is reporting

Try paper clip test above for codes as said. Had "some" of your symptoms on a 2.0 that had a loose dash. But think yours runs a little deeper tbh.
Maybe check the obvious first, loose battery terminals. Alternator terminals and connections.
Ecu plugs etc. Has any work been done on the car recently?
