Problemo numero uno.......immobiliser won´t disconnect Do not know why it does not want me to start the engine.....fooled the bloody thing and started via the solenoid.......just like a common car thief....... Problemo numero due.......the cooloing fans do not start.......is there some air in the system or what ???? Had the engine going to 110 degrees centigrade and did not dare to go any further. The "funny" thing is.......had no issues with the alarm system before the engine out operation......why is it stuck now ????? Had no problems with the cooling fans before either.......what is going on here ???? Any thoughts.......any solutions maybe ????? //B//
Congrats on getting the car running again, Bengt! I don't have an immobilizer, so can't add anything on that. But YES, if you have too much air in your cooling system, you could have air covering your temp sensors instead of coolant, and the sensors will not get hot enough to turn on the fans. I drained my coolant as part of Dave Helm's gold connector kit installation on my 348, and it happened to me!! I shut down, bled cooling system, and the fans then worked OK. Best of Luck finishing the car!!
....How do I do that ??? The air is supposed to go to the top...unless it is trapped somewhere..... Is there a bleeding screw somewhere ???? //B//
.....everything running smoothly......except that "bleeding" immobiliser. Can´t get the bloody thing to work so I guess I just have to get rid of it and buy a new one. It is from 1995 so I guess its time has run out anyway. Got them fans to work just by letting the air out......easy fix......thanks for the tip. //B//
Yes, there are two of them (circled in red); as I understand it you bleed each one individually. 10mm nut IIRC, and just loosen them until you hear air escaping and tighten when fluid starts to run out. Edit: I see you figured it out - great job! Image Unavailable, Please Login
Sorry I'm just logging on and saw your question on bleeding, Bengt. But I see you found the solution! Hope you can sort out the immobilizer.
