Computer not working!

[whitey75]

Alright,

Little problem, I noticed the light was on where the mileage and temperature are shown on the clocks after I had switched everything off. I checked the computer and it didnt work, not even warning of low fuel.

Theres nothing at all but the light for the mileage stays on all the time.

Any idea whats wrong with it???

A fairly common glitch. Try a 15 minute battery-off reboot. Ensure you have the radio code and you know how to enter it afterwards. Any satnav gear needs to be shut down according to the manual too.

Ensure the plenum is dry.

Not sure I have the radio code! Is there anything else I can try or is this normally the problem/fix?

This has always fixed it for others. You can try instead removing the fuse for the instrument cluster. Unfortunately, the manual lists several, so you might need to try each in turn. Let us know which one works!

If you have Hi Line Sat Nav in your Car they don't have a code
just follow correct shutdown procedures before disconnecting battery.

Ok I went on the site on here for radio codes and saved it incase I needed it. Went outside, disconnected the battery, left it for about 20 minutes, connected it again...

Thanks alot!!! Simplest thing that I would not think of. Didnt need a code either. That was simpler than changing the indicator bulb! lol
