  • Battery symbol while driving

    Hello guys, I have a Opel Corsa C VAN EZ 2010, with 1248ccm, 75hp diesel Z13DTJ Before that, I approached the battery light far from home while driving, then stopped with running engine and checked the V-belt. Seems to be quite normal to turn, but then did not look too closely, because I had the alternator in suspicion. Shortly before home, several symbols were then approached : ABS and ! additionally and the radio also made no sound Then I noticed that the power steering doesn’t do as it should any more. Then I parked the car at home again on a hill while the engine is running and checked the V-belt for a short time. It’s not cracked, but I didn’t see if the belt turned over where. How should I proceed now? Can it be that the servo pump no longer works as soon as the battery is flat or should it work when the car is running and the belt is turning? nd measure voltage? 13-14V should it be, right? If I measure a voltage in this order of magnitude then the LIMA is in order or can it be that it does not supply the necessary charging current any more. I would rule out battery, although it is quite strange that it occurs at these low temperatures (up to -15° the last days) but could also have strained the rubber of the belt a bit.

  • Turn signal does not work, wrench lights in dashboard

    Hello, I have several trailers with 7-pin connectors. At the Ahk on the car have a 13-pin plug. So I use an adapter that is usually always in the socket on the car. For a few days the turn signal on the car no longer works and the lamp lights up in the dashboard with the wrench when the adapter is in the car and no trailer is connected. Before, the adapter has stuck at least 8000 km in the car without any problems. say what’s going on? mfg Friedel

  • Vivaro Life interior lighting

    Hello, I have a small problem with the interior lighting on my Vivaro Life. The front lighting turns on/off when the driver or passenger door is opened/closed. The rear lighting with additional reading lamps above the second and third row of seats cannot be switched ON/OFF via the front or rear doors. Manually, however, this works. Each of the rear lamps has a toggle switch with three positions. Switch positions for MANUAL ON, OFF, and TURCONTACT CALLS stand. However, this is not the case. I cannot set the switches so that the rear interior lighting is switched on e.g. with the sliding door. However, the door contact switches seem to be OK, since the front lighting works. Can someone give me a hint, what am I doing wrong? The operating instructions do not give anything usable. Mfg. Tom

  • Upgrade heaters in Trafic

    Hello together! I want to apologize in advance if I open here a topic that has already been dealt with several times. I am new here, but I found nothing suitable in the search function. I drive a Renault Trafic II JL 1,9 liter diesel 73kW Passenger, in which a Eberspächer heater D5WZ is installed. As many people know, there is the possibility to upgrade this to full-fledged heater…at least theoretically. I would like to know if the upgrade kits of these vehicles can also be installed on me. I have now compared the schematics. However, since I am electronically rather undisturbed, I now turn to you. Maybe someone already has experience of “adapting” other upgrade kits. Thank you very much in advance.
