Two of the connectors in the loom behind the ATC panel/ashtray unit in the centre console have the three cables to the solar sensor through them.

Terry,

I'm confused. What do you mean?

Joe,

I've just found this:
"If there is a fault with the K bus link to the BCU, 'er' shows in the RH temperature window."
Is that what you have?

Simon.

er is showing on both sides, even when the AC is switched off,
If i turn the engine off it extinguish's, restart the car try the aircon again and it stays on

Now it has just gotten more confusing
tried the test in the sunlight 26 degrees at 7 a.m.!

and it is showing FC00
getting stressed again as now i think its worse than i thought

FC00, according to MG Rover, is "no fault found"! I imagine this means that the previous sunlight sensor indication was false because your car was in the garage.

The manual doesn't seem to mention an 'er' indication in both temperature windows. Yes, you could try a battery disconnection but don't forget to allow your sat. nav. drive to shut down properly. But if this fault has only occurred since the console was removed, there must be a clue there surely?

Simon.
