    No, Ranger. But I've had a work acquaintance that had similar weirdities on the LoLux - finally tracked it down to a pinch in the loom under the sheathing which damaged the insulation on a wire and allowed the middle of the wire to go green and fuzzy. Not really the fault of the vehicle as such - I expect my vehicle's issue will be similar because it's showing the same sort of weird faults in systems that aren't directly related except for the control system. Also, the faults aren't all out of the same control module so it's unlikely that multiple modules are going bad at the same time. It's just finding the cause of it - could be anything from a plug connector that doesn't like getting warm, to a pinch or bad section of a cable, to a crusty earth somewhere, to a sensor that's not playing the game and putting out a bad signal at the wrong time. Such a pain in the bum, as the error codes if it throws any are like 'parking sensor not responding' or 'such and such failed to communicate' - so helpful. Why did it fail to communicate you piece of sh**!
