Hi,
Were you able to make any progress on this? I have the exact same thing re. Press the key fob for a second and it pops open. Any longer than that and it opens an inch and catches on the latch.
Will be checking the wiring as soon as I get the 3x corroded torx screws that hold the whole...
Ahhhh.......my parents had a '77 model as I recall.cost GBP 2200 (not sure why I remember that,). BL at possibly their worst. Remember the windshield seal leaked. Dealer response was "Madam but they all leak!" Or something similar.
At least they didn't buy an Allegro...........
I would let the shop sort it out at this point. Just make sure tactfully that they are aware of the correct bleed procedure. The DIY at home procedure involves raising the expansion tank a couple of inches. Google it to find the procedure. Make sure they replaced the bleed valve with a new one...
Useful thought process thanks!
I had a look at the actuator. Physically nothing looks amiss, but if solenoid issue then would not be visible.
I took the lift gate switch out as per Powerfuluk vid. As per their vid, also snapped one of the tabs. Seems there's no way to avoid doing that as cannot...
Ah found it. Thanks!
Electrics are a horror show for me. Have a multimeter but barely know how to use it.
So the final solution was to just splice in two new wires between the switch and the connector?
Will investigate as weather permits. Will probably replace actuator anyway now I have wrecked...
So........ this morning the rear hatch opened with the key fob. Took the carpet out and tore out the weatherproofing membrane. Closed the hatch and now its doing what it did initially I.e. only response is with key fob, and then it only opens half an inch before the latch catches.
When I...
2010 model: So I have read a number of accounts of rear hatch actuator issues with varying symptoms.
Before I throw $$ at it and order parts I would be grateful if anyone can give me additional insight to pinpoint likely malfunctioning part(s).
Out of the blue today I could only open the rear...
All sensors front and back quiet - no clicking. The fact the front ones are dead too makes me wonder if its something More systemic i.e. control module?
Hi,
So the rear parking sensor system on my 2010 has totally failed. Put it in reverse and the parking sensor dash button flashes several times and then goes out. No beeping from sensors at back (or front).
Over past 24 months have replaced all four sensors at the back with non-OEM parts. When...
So this morning with overnight temps of 5degC the voltage at the battery terminals was 12V off, 10.6V cranking. Car started fine. Thinking may be the starter motor. Confirmed the battery is 4yo.
V. Meter:
Off 12.6V
Running 14.7V
Cranking 11.2V
Iid tool
Off 12.5V
Running 14.5V
Cranking 11.2V
So near identical results.
Will try again tomorrow morning from cold
Yes, after car parked overnight.
Just back from 1,000 mile road trip with no issues. What would healthy voltage at battery terminals be during cranking?
