Can anyone help me please ?
I had a new clutch fitted in my Lancer 8
and now the 3 lights....Tarmac
Gravel
Snow
Are all on at the same time.
I am thinking is it something to do with
disconnecting the battery ?
And,how to reset it.
Any information will be greatly appreciated.
Al.

did they bleed the ayc?

The three lights are to do with the ayc. Like mentioned above it might be because its not been bled up properly.....or your pump is not making pressure. I had the same issue with mine! Because it was "pressurised" it didnt know that the pump wasnt working untill the ayc system was messed with, when coming to bleed it it wouldnt make pressure. Try holding your throttle right down and switching your ignition on....have someone at the rear passenger corner listening out for the pump. It should run then start to slow as it builds pressure, if it runs at a continuous speed it needs a rebuild or new pump. It probably hasnt worked for months....i noticed the difference when it was all working

You have to bleed the ACD after a clutch change because the gearbox and trasfer case have to come off. This problem could be caused if whoever did the clutch change removed the hydraulic line, didn't bleed it the system again. May just require a bleed

Okay chaps,I'll go out now and try the throttle right down with the ignition on.
However,my motor is going back in tomorrow to be looked at by the mechanic that
fitted the clutch and he says he knows of the problem and how to rectify it.
Anyway,thank you all for your information.......

Yeah no worries....let us know how you get on

Sorry for the delay,anyhow,my motor went back and
the mechanic had to bleed a pump I think.
It was gone about 3 hours to Derby from Nottingham
and came back perfect !

 

[andyw08]

[cosworth3]

No,he just sai he and a friend did it.......Bleeding or getting air out.

Standard bleed no doubt, just something he must have overlooked.
