G60_91 0 Posted June 4, 2007 I went to open my G this morning and found the central locking isnt working, from remote or manually. I thought i must need a new pump or something, but when i got in and drove along the elec windows werent working. On my way to work today i have lost the following things and have checked over a few of the fuses but they all look fine. Ive just done a quick search on here and google and found a few things realting to a 'convenience control unit' which has the same symptoms as mine. I did give it a wash yesterday and apparantley this can blow when there is a severe leak? ive lost.....sunroof, windows, fogs, heated rear screen, wipers, heaters/blowers, central locking... but these still work....headlights, spoiler (typical!) elec mirrors, radio, interior lights. any help would be much appreciated as it looks like rain today and i will be stuck at work if i canna get my wipers goin!! :( Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

G60_91 0 Posted June 4, 2007 Im a bit stuck till my lunch hour now, i was going to go through and check them all at dinner but i was late in this morning anyway so cant really go and have a look. If i go for a sly smoke break in a min i will check, which ones are they? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
G60_91 0 Posted June 4, 2007 When you say the 2 above the fuse box, are those the large square numbered plug in fuses with 3 spade connectors? my auto electrionics knowledge is appalling sorry. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
vr6storm 0 Posted June 4, 2007 they control the e/w and c/l..........mine kept blowing last year..........they are literally on top of the fuse box as an add-on.....so not too visible when checking the fuses Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
G60_91 0 Posted June 4, 2007 cant see them at the minute, will i need to take any other trim off apart from the skuttle covering the fuseboard to get to them? My windows and c/l were the first to go, but could that have a knock on effect to my other electrics failing? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
G60_91 0 Posted June 4, 2007 ok, ive checked for 2 fuses above the main board but cant see any. there's 1 which is hanging loose with the wires taped to it and there are also 2 wires hanging down taped together. They look like something left from the alarm install but i dont know for certain. is the fuse/relay panel the same on all corrado's? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
G60_91 0 Posted June 5, 2007 Had a word with a mechanic mate who is looking at my car on thurs as a favour. On the phone he said it sounded like an earth fault to cause all those things to go in one morning. Has anyone had a similar problem at all or do you know if the items that have failed are on a seprate earth connection to those that are still working ok? he's said as much info i can give him to narrow down what he is looking for will save him some time and money. Any comments or help would be much appreciated. many thanks sam Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
