CD400 Turning off and on
Hi all,
New here, so a big hello to you all.
In the last two weeks I have bought a Vauxhall Insignia 2.0 Ecotec 2010. It has done 77k Miles and is a brilliant car, fell in love after a test drive.
I unfortunatley have had a few problems, a few in which I have sorted myself, however I am left with two big ones that I want others views on before I dulge into loads of money at Vauxhall as I have been to a local and they tell me that I need a vauxhall diagnostic machine on it to code etc.
1. only started this morning (after heavy rain last night if this matters). Put the key in ignition start the engine, radio now hesitates to come on but then comes on. Then will go off. Will look like its trying to come on the screen will flicker and eventually it will come on, but sometimes goes off whilst driving. This is an issue as the radio doesn't work, but also I cannot access the vehicle management menu or control my heating as it all goes through the screen. My worry is that this may be a new radio or some sort of computer that controls the lot? I have been informed that there was a technical bulletin where the water leaks in through the wiper arm and on the harness of the radio? If anyone knows about this. I have had a battery test done and it come back as a good battery. I am stumped, and it only started this morning after the rain last night. The radio unit is a CD400 and the climate control runs through it also.
2. On a side note the only other problem I have is the lights behind the speedo clocks, some of them flicker on and off, and go off completely when dimming the brightness. Am informed the whole speedo needs changing as LED, is this correct?
Any help on the radio matter would be brilliant, as its frustrating and am worried about a rather large hole left in the wallet because of it.
Many thanks to all,
Tom.
