unfkingbelievable!!
I asked a mechanically minded mate to come round today and help me pull out the gearbox, as the wreckers prices where exchange.. so out with box was the only decission, bought a Gregorys Manual to boot..
reveresed the car up the drive way to put it on the ramps, mate of mine mentioned (fk ecu cars, to hard to work on - get a carby car pre 90's), so im listening to him talk tech and recall Doctor Bob mentioning check fuses <- I thought pfft yeah right - but checked anyway? SO WHAT HAPPENS I CHECK THE FUSES UNDER THE STEERING WHEEL AND FK ME THERE A FUSS DEDICATED TO THE TRANSMISSION (15AMP) "AND ITS BLOWN!!" SO I REPLACE IT AND ENGINE LIGHT HAS DISAPPEARED - GEARBOX IS WORKING GOOD AS EVER...
Thank you Doctor Bob.. you just saved me $500-$1000 - I cant believe it I feel like a total fool - I been hitching to work and back for the last two weeks saving cash for another box and everything... I feel so good right now
I just wanted to let everyone who replied to this topic and suggested ideas that I really appreciated your help.. and to the others who have similar problems, I cross my fingers for you and hope it is only a fuse.
thanks again everyone.

ps. I still logged errors 67 and 68 in my gearbox, thats 2 less than before but the car drives great, i will have it checked next week and from now on I will carry a spare transmission fuse in the glove box - just incase.
check the fuses, the most common cause for logging all these together is a blown fuse.
