Car Immobilised - Contact Dealer X

[Dr_Mutley]

yeah back to normal after fixing the 60A fuseable link

Hi Dr Mutley, is your VE still going? I'm getting exact same warnings on my dash except while I was driving the 'reduced speed' warning msg came up. I pulled over and had a look under the bonnet, not that i know anything about whats under there, so jumped back in turned the key that's when the contact dealer msg came up and wont start. If anyone has any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks

I’ve been having the same issue the last few months. It’s sporadic. Car will start then as drive a few feet shut off. Firstly I changed to a new battery. All good. Then did it again. So I did a scan, nothing. So disconnected battery for a short time and all good. Did a scan again nothing. But all good. Then today was out for an hour came home. Then piped out to pick up son and happened again. Same old thing working then stopped as reversing out. Did all things above and working again. Found your post so checked the 60a terminal
Fuse both fine. I’m absolutely stumped as to what can be causing it. I might just change the terminal fuse anyway just in case. Where did you get yours from? Cheers buddy
