  1. I didn't think of the clocks, they have been out in the past to replace the bulbs. Pretty sure I've replaced the main power relay and I've definatly cleaned up the earth points! I'll take a look at it over the holidays.


  2. I have a weird electrical fault which causes the engine to cut out on my VR6 with no warning! It seams to die and all the dash lights don't illuminate! It's a random fault but becoming more frequent, now it's undriveable, it cut out on a roundabout today and I had to have it towed. Sometimes it restarts by cycling the ignition sometimes the dash lights don't come back on but it will still crank but won't fire.

     

    So far I've replaced the battery, alternator, ignition switch, indicator stalk and cleaned the battery connections. It seams like the immobiliser comes on? It has an aftermarket sigma alarm/immob, but this arms and unarms fine, I can even hear it click when the dash lights aren't on.

     

    Any ideas what it could be? I was thinking a fuse able link? If it has one? Or a fuse box problem?


  3. Yep have one of those, doesn't stop it either! Anyway think i've found the issue to be the internal battery is goosed. Have disconected the alarm for the time being, it'll either be reconnected at some point or a shiney new one fitted!


  4. Just picked up a VR6 earlier with a mate. The car was sat for 3 - 4 years with a battery connected which is now knackered. Put a new battery on but as soon as it is connected the alarm goes off and we can't stop it with fob. Have tried a new fob battery but it hasn't helped.

    Is there anyway of resetting the alarm? Its a Laserline 996V2.
