VF Evoke VE Omega
Hi everyone,

I've been having trouble with an 09 VE Omega I have owned for a while. What has been happening is whenever I accelerate (sometime light, other times flooring it)
the red dash light for "door open" lights up and so has the overhead light (until I switched it off from lighting up when doors are opened).

This only last a few seconds, maybe 5 seconds at most, but I'm not entirely sure whats happening here, my only idea would be an alternator issue? It only ever happens when I accelerate, but lately it has been happening every time I do so.

Have plugged it in, but no diagnostic data unfortunately.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.


Kind Regards

Have a close look at the door switches. Sounds like you might have a loose connection or a bad earth.

Sit in the car with the ignition on and all windows down, get someone to push and pull on each door and see if the light comes on.
