slugger1 Posted April 2, 2015 Share Posted April 2, 2015 Recently had the coil packs changed and now the lights as mentioned in the title flash repeatedly. Also the snow mode and traction buttons don't appear to work! Coincidence or another unrelated problem? Anyone got any advice on this? Cheers.

ellis Posted April 2, 2015 Share Posted April 2, 2015 Mine does the same. According to the Brains on here it's a defunct delimiter/speed converter. Doesn't affect anything except you cant't turn off TC or use MANU mode. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ellis Posted April 2, 2015 Share Posted April 2, 2015 Are you sure? Is it a JSpec? You limited to 112mph? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevie_b Posted April 2, 2015 Share Posted April 2, 2015 Do you have any error codes showing up? If you do this smells like a code 42, my specialist subject. The workshop manual says code 42 is a speed sensor error, but it's very, very rarely caused by a problem with the speed sensor. More than likely it's a faulty speed converter/delimiter as Ellie said, or that the buffer circuit in the odometer has decided to stop working. Both causes are easily fixed.

Guest Sausage Posted April 2, 2015 Share Posted April 2, 2015 I feel this mans pain. I've had nothing but problems with my auto and one day I got some air time and it's worked fine ever since which means tomorrow it will break again. Hope you get to the bottom of it dude Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slugger1 Posted April 2, 2015 Author Share Posted April 2, 2015 Are you sure? Is it a JSpec? You limited to 112mph? Yes it's still limited to 112mph. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kargato Posted August 30, 2016 Share Posted August 30, 2016 I just experienced this same issue, however I realized that the o/d light would not flash if the o/d button was actually off. Putting it on results in it flashing together with the slip cont off light. Also, the relay labeled abs sol clicks rapidly as soon as the ign is turned on and never stops. Has anyone experienced this? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
and1c Posted August 30, 2016 Share Posted August 30, 2016 Whats the best way to locate/ID speed limiter/converter? Trace the wires from the cluster? My Jspec must have one as Odo is mph. Are there any suppliers of good speed limiters/converters nowadays? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ashloys Posted August 31, 2016 Share Posted August 31, 2016 Similar thing happened to my car and it was the autobox ECU that had died. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
