It seems that the fan has developed a start up memory. Mine comes on later on during the drive.

Hi Trip01 Mate if the red light is still flashing your car is immobilised. (you can not start it). If your pushin buttens and then nothing you need a new key head(paddle pop) There is a 40-45 mins system of waiting to immobilise the system but i have never needed to use it. I have never...

That's big $ for the BCM + key heads. We just had new key head replaced at GMH. Hope they coded it correctly. Wife & I just checked codes. 12 came up x 3 then 47, which denotes CAS. We disconnected the battery to reset the codes. All back to 12 now. (Removing that 20a engine fuse didn't...

The coils/DFI unit can also be at the root of the problem. This is normally a bit of a miss fire to start with and tends to go dead. This may be my problem ? Symptoms... When cruise is on, there is a miss fire, & sometimes the motor just cuts out. Other times the motor wont start. During...

Mine intermittantly cuts out and won't start sometimes. Have replaced the computer so far. Also new key. Reckon it has something to do with the immobiliser. (the red light under the clock on the radio) Can the immobiliser be disconnected without any ill effects ? Kind Rgds Dave

Same thing with VS 6/96 V6 Berlina. Has something to do with the immobiliser ? (read in previous thread) When it won't start straight away the red light under the clock on the radio blinks once then it starts. When it starts straight away, that red light doesn't come on at all. Yet to see...

Same issue on VS V6 auto 6/96. Wait for 5 mins & starts again. Changed computer over was good for a while. Now back to square one. Am thinking fuel filter, crank angle sensor. Will check vehicle immobilizer light next time it cuts out. This needs to go out when igition on. Also listen to...
