sorry to make another post but didnt know how many read electrical section

mini facelift 2000 cdx

the front heated seats dont work and the LED's do not light up on either switch

the map reading lights do not work

and code 87 displays also - ac cutoff relay voltage low

they all seem to be related :-?

i'm not the only user for these symptoms to arise on (tiggerhayes)

can anyone else help as no-one seems to have a clue really

I would start by looking at the fuse's, maybe fuse 20 to start with in the fuse box under the dash.
But check out all the live feeds and grounds

2--15A Brake lamps, hazard warning flashers

7--30A Electrically operated windows
8--10A Daylight running lamps (Scandinavia)
9--10A Automatic transmission (for the infirm)
10-30A Heated diesel fuel filter
11-10A Heated exterior mirrors
12-20A Courtesy light, tunk lamp, hazard warning flashers, information display, radio, navigation system
13-10A Electrically adjustable exterior mirrors

16-20A Fog lamps
17-20A Horn (not the pot noodle variety)
18-20A Fuel pump (useful to remove then run engine to de-pressurise fuel system when changing fuel filter etc!)
19-10A ABS, TC
20-20A Courtesy lamp, seat heating, central locking, rear window blind
21-10A Main beam (left)
22-10A Dipped beam (left) headlamp range adjustment
23-10A Parking and tail lamps
24-20A Coolant heating
25-20A Sunroof
26-10A Number plate lamp, information display, headlamp washer system
27-20A Automatic level control system, rear accessory socket
28-20A Fog tail lamp
29-30A Terminal 30. constant current for caravan/trailer (pikey optional fit, can be used for simple audio instals)
30-10A Parking and tail lamps (right)
31-15A Dipped beam (right), headlamp range adjustment
32-10A Main beam (right), control indicators
33-30A Heater fan, air-conditioning system, electric air-conditioning system (climate)
34-40A Heated rear window

now thats the thing - the fuses that collaborate with heated seats are fine.
the Courtesy lamps are fine - only the map reading lamps are not working (pressing the button on either side on the light)
fuse 20 is fine as is the central locking

The relay in question is Code K60, position number 5, which is the 3rd one along looking from the front, under the bonnet.

Now I know nothing about relays etc, but if this has gone is it likely to affect the heated seats and map lights? :-/

So could it just be a case of replacing the relay?

I had much the same problem on my 2.6 Elite. No A/C, no heated seats (front or rear), and no map lights. It turned out to be a wiring fault behind the dashboard. Fortunately this was rectified by the dealer under warranty.

we dont seem to be getting much help with this one do we!! the omega community isnt as up to scratch as it thinks it is LOL

RICHARD - any idea exactly what was wrong with the wiring? possibility that it was something simple like a relay rather than something big?

[Sir Tigger KC]

I think I'll pick up a relay next time I pass the scrappy and try that..... :-/

[matt-sboro]

it doesnt help the weather is so crappy - could do with getting out and having a look
