Few niggles the 5....help required please

No.1 - I have driven home today and there is a small issue with having no indicators, checked and the hazards do not work either.....any ideas???

No.2 - The steering wheel has been replaced and has the SRS light on and also the horn does not work.....??

No.3 - Interior lights do not come on at all they work if you press the buttons and turn them on manually but off the sensors they are not working at all??

I would be forever in your debt for any help on these......:razz:

Have you checked the indicator fuse? And relay?

Is it a non airbag steering wheel thats been fitted? If it is then a resistor in the airbag wiring should sort the light out.

As it is chucking it down with rain not checked anything yet thought would see what the census was on here while rain stops play, did gather it would be the relay if anything for indicators. Yeah non-airbag steering wheel. How would i get a resistor in the wiring?? I have found what i believe is the wiring plug.

Quick update...I went and dodged the rain to find that the fuse under the bonnet was gone and replaced it with the unblown fuse from the horn....and it was ok until pressed the hazard button blew straight away......any further ideas???

check the wiring for the indicators sounds like you have a short somewhere

Hi also with checking hazard switch as if you have it unplugged indicators don't work! So could be a short in the actual switch causing fuses to blow!

Steering wheel could have a bad contact on the pickups on the back!

The weird thing is with the indicators and hazards is they have worked since i purchased the car and now i have fitted new stereo this has happened.....connected maybe??

Has anyone got any pics of how the after market wheel should fit against the wheel hub as it looks like there is something missing.....

sounds like a wiring problem you've caused

 

[mikeyb1983]

Hmmm start by disconnecting the stereo then...!!

Could depend on the style of wheel and hub you have. Best thing to do would be for you to get a pic up for us to have a look.

A quick search in google should help with the airbag resistor. Basically it fools the ecu into thinking the airbag is still there so light goes on and off like it should.

I think what may be missing is the Clockspring as there is nothing for the contact of the hub to sit against......Hmmmm anyone got one of these or best to try eBay??

what steering wheel do you have ??

OMP

It will be the live wire on your horn and it will have the wire bared coming through the boss as they usually get caught here and when turning the steering wheel the wire gets caught and strips the outer coating of the wire leaving it bare and thus touching an earth on the boss. Take the steering wheel off and re-route the wire so it will not catch on the boss when turning the steering wheel and coat it with some heat shrink for extra protection.

Something else now.......A whining noise sounds like power steering coming from drivers side(i think!) this a common fault?? This Evo ownership does not seem to be going so well for me atm.....expected a few things to tinker around with though...just want her to be perfect....anyone know anywhere in Warwickshire where i could get a good once over on it??
