As i understand it if you do not do the test in bright sunlight then the solar sensors will show as a fault

Hi Joe,

Sorry for the late reply, but I see you've been making good progress.

do you know what the codes means?

FC22 means the right hand output of the solar sensor is open or short circuit.

where do you get this info from?

From MG Rover's CD ROM workshop manual.

Stocktake makes a good point. MGR advises that the sunlight sensor is illuminated with a strong light source in low natural light conditions to avoid a false fault indication. Mind you, is that possible in the Australian summer?

Actually i did the test in the garage, so when i go out today i will do it again.

might have been barking up the wrong tree because i did the test indoors
might be a totally different problem
there i go again talking to myself

Earlier i had said FC22 and FC22
i meant FC21 and FC22 back and forth

this post is to tell myself what i did myself

Those faults are default codes for the photo cell nothing to be worried about

phenonix · 4th February 2011, 20:00

Are you saying *ER* means the cells of the display has gone?
If so it just needs a new display?

Oh, I think your referring to FC22, I thought we had a different idea there for a minute
