Also try a BSI reboot.

I suppose what I mean is that all the lights come up as a check when you turn the ignition on.

They don't though.
Only certain warning lights come on at the pre start check

#8: Re: warning signs Author: Lee, Location: EnglandPosted: Thu Dec 30, 2010 11:44 am ---- Will be the battery dying and/or alternator under or overcharging
#9: Re: warning signs Author: darrenskinner1, Location: invernessPosted: Thu Dec 30, 2010 12:23 pm ---- ok cool ill look into this
#10: Re: warning signs Author: sri16v, Location: WalesPosted: Fri Dec 31, 2010 5:26 am ---- Id get the battery checked first, my 180 would get the airbag faults when starting on very cold mornings, but they would clear if you turned it off and restarted it. New battery solved it for me.
#11: Re: warning signs Author: mjsroofing, Location: south walesPosted: Fri Dec 31, 2010 5:29 am ---- battery drained from start up and the alternator is then charging it back up and the lights then go off. at a guess and agreeing with above.
