Phantom Wipers !
 

On my "new" ZT-T last night the alarm went off, not a problem I thought, went outside and pressed the fob, lights and alarm off but then in the dark I hear a strange noise, hey ho the wipers front and rear are working. How come ? Doors locked key in hand !
So I unlock the car and start the engine, wipers stop, stop engine remove key, wipers start !
Also at one point with the car locked I could see the ignition lights on on the dash, eh how come ?
After doing this several times I ended up whipping the earth lead off the battery.
This morning all seems ok ,so what was it ?

Dunno sorry hun but by reseting battery like you have normally etadicates any gremlins, hth

time of the mth for the car :shrug:

Do you have a son named Damien by any chance?

Watch out for mt94 under your box then
And watch it doesnt just cut out and refuse to start again.


Cheeky bleeder.

I would Check your plenum area is not flooded and the check the battery is ok and not on its way out.

Have you had heavy rain? Check your plenum! Dave

If you've got sat nav you've probably got water in the boot well or in the sat nav drive....this is a sympton of water touching the k-bus circuit

Also, if it is a diesel, it can be water corrosion to the contacts of the glow plug relay.
This also plays havoc with the K-bus

Exactly the fault i had. A wet bcu under the glove box. Spray all connections with wd40 and wrap the bcu in plastic before bolting it back to the bulkhead.hth
