Re: Problem with ECU?

Forgot to say, I noticed you are in Johnston, not that far away from me. The guy who fixed ours was in Bathgate, can give you his details if that would help.

Re: Problem with ECU?

Did you try a search on here for similar issues? There were 2 running at one stage, myself and a guy called Streetwise. We traded info and I got confused as to who started what post, so this one; https://igmaynard.co.uk/bongo/forum/viewtopic.php?t=77805 is his but has the outcome of mine at teh end ...

Diagnostics.

I have been given a cable which plugs into the OBD socket in the Bongo. The other end, I believe plugs into a Laptop and then you need to log into a website to get the results. Trouble is I don't know what site, by the way the cable was free, so if I can do this, that's great but if not, nothing los...

Re: How does this look??

I would agree with the advice so far, looks a bit iffy but if it has been in this country for a few years they tend to start to rust anyway, in my experience. Some of it looks like the front sub-frame which is quite heavy metal and could arguably be changed (wouldn't lie the job though). I would be ...

Re: Glow plug light flickering

Just thought I should put a final post on here to end the story as it were. I haven't been on for a wee while so apologies for that. The eventual outcome of this was we had to give it to an Auto Electrician, I tried everything but I really wasn't getting there,so he phoned us back after a couple of ...

Re: Climatronic flap motor.

Yes I get that and that's why I kept it on footwell when doing my tests. So I am teetering now between, maybe it's actually OK and should I look further into this and see if there is anything else I don't know about, like I said above maybe another flap in the system, is there a schematic diagram an...

Re: Climatronic flap motor.

Some more observations; we were just out in the van so got it up to full temperature and strangely when you put your hand at the vents, I am talking front footwell vents, you can feel the air blowing and how hot it is. As you increase the temperature, I expected over 25 I would get nothing but it do...

Re: Climatronic flap motor.

OK had a look today, O/S servo seems to be working all right but no bearing on heat. I set it to footwell and the N/S only really adjusts form 18 degrees to 25.5 then no movement at all and as far as I can tell (Cold day) it was as near as normal temp as I could get. So I have adjustment in the lowe...

Re: Climatronic flap motor.

I remembered reading about that before, so I have already cleaned it and it was full of fluff and gunk but it didn't seem to make any difference sadly.

Re: Climatronic flap motor.

It's a bout 90 degrees on the passengers side one but with a big chunk missing in the middle, not sure what that makes it but 90 degrees and to end anyway. I will have a look tomorrow but if this one i am dealing with is the heat flap then I can't see how the other could take up the slack in the mid...

Re: Climatronic flap motor.

g8dhe; Yes I have heard them called servos, so that's the same thing. I have only looked at the passenger's side, should I maybe be looking at drivers as well? Ian, I am afraid I am not a full member on here, so can't see the fact sheets, perhaps I should be considering joining, can't remember how t...

Climatronic flap motor.

Hi, our Bongo is a 96 2.5TD 4x4, we noticed the heater wasn't working properly a while back but it now sees to be worse, by the way we have climate control (digital display on dash). I recently had some success with a VW car which had a similar problem, so full of new found inspiration I thought let...

Re: Unusual Starting problem.

OK, so opposite to the last post for the last few days I have ad constant intermittent flashing glow plug light. I checked the wiring with the diagram supplied by Geoff and it is fine but the voltage is reduced to the purple wire and so from there all the way to the plugs. I tried to trace the wore ...
