Title: Electrical issue - please help!
Post by: SergeyAU on August 20, 2011, 07:03:22

Hi guys!
Need some help please.
Installed reversing camera today, ran a cable on a side of a car (under the trim/plastic), connected everything - camera works.
And then...
- remote stopped working
- rear windows on both sides do not work (front work fine)
- odo screen not showing that doors are open (works OK when ignition is on)
- interior lights do not work at all
- boot door does not open (had to open it from inside)

I have checked interior fuses, but makes no sense that half the car works. Checked if I damaged some cable - all seem intact.
Any ideas?

Sounds to me like the BCM needs reinitialising (all the faults you mentioned are tied into the body control module I think), unless you broke it :eek:


My best guess, for starteds, would be to disconnect the -ve lead from your battery and wait half an hour before reconnecting it.

Thank you.
All (kind of) fixed. Re-checked fuses - one was gone. It was the one inside the yellow click that holds 2.
Now, after doing all that (this time with -ve) disconnected, after I finished and started testing, all good except ESP OFF light
that would not go away =( Any ideas?

That always happens when I disconnect my battery. It should disappear the next time you start her up
