I tried to post a few minutes ago but had a problem so apologies if both appear. My Father-in-Law has a 2008 Vectra 1.9CDti (120) with 35k Miles. Yesterday it developed it first fault since he has owned it (2 yrs and 20k Miles) with an Emissions dash warning light coming on. I called the RAC
Tagged. 0 Thread (s) And to answer your question - disconnect the battery for 10 minutes ( make sure you know how to reset the windows and have the radio code if needed) When you reconnect the battery the average milage and the trip should have returned to zero and the gearbox ecu will also have reset too.
Wed 2 Mar 2005 08:40 Vectra Alarm Reset - Deryck Tintagel Does anyone know if it is possible to reset the standard fit alarm on a 2001 Vectra without a diagnostics tool? I have removed the main car battery to recharge it after another problem but now the dash LED is indicating a fault after replacing the battery Any help appreciated Wed 2 Mar 2005 11:58 Vectra Alarm Reset - teabelly You could try holding in the trip button when turning on the ignition and as it goes through the flash sequence. If that doesn't sort it then hold the trip button while the ignition is on and read the code to make sure it is the alarm that is the problem and not something else deciding to break instead! teabelly Wed 2 Mar 2005 12:40 Vectra Alarm Reset - Dynamic Dave Holding in the trip while turning on ignition only resets the service interval "INSP" message. Derek, the alarm has a battery back up. I'm wondering if while the main battery was off, the back up battery drained itself. No idea where it's located, but it might just be a case of waiting for it to recharge itself from the main battery. I take it you've tried disconnecting and reconnecting the main car battery again to see if it'll reset itself? Wed 2 Mar 2005 12:45 Vectra Alarm Reset - Deryck Tintagel I have the Vectra B so I do not have the INSP message on mine. The back-up battery could be drained slightly but I disabled the sounder as per the handbook. I think the power sounder is in the wheel-arch behind a panel. I haven't tried the battery again - it could be that the reconnection wasn't "clean" and that caused the fault. I'll have a word with a Vauxhall technician I have now found and report back. Wed 2 Mar 2005 13:04 Vectra Alarm Reset - Dynamic Dave I have the Vectra B so I do not have the INSP message on mine. My old Vectra B did, well according to the manual it did, but I never saw it come on in the 3+ years of think the power sounder is in the wheel-arch behind a panel. Yep, front nearside wheel-arch, but is the battery incorperated in the sounder, or is it in a separate location?I haven't tried the battery again - it could be that the reconnection wasn't "clean" and that caused the fault. It would be the easiest thing to try, as the fault only occured when the battery was re-connected. Wed 2 Mar 2005 13:56 Vectra Alarm Reset - Deryck Tintagel Bit confused now ... Ex-Vauxhall technician reckons on a TECH 2 reset if there is no problem with any sensor, but he did tell me to check the bonnet switch. Local Vauxhall dealer reckons that there is no need to reset the alarm after a battery removal. Will try the battery re-connect this weekend. I would expect that there would be no need to reset but .... Wed 2 Mar 2005 18:35 Vectra Alarm Reset - Dynamic Dave Derek, I know this is a daft question, but I take it the bonnet, all doors, & boot were closed, and interior light was off when setting the alarm? Any one of them left open, or if the interior light is left switched on will show up as a fault on the alarm LED. Does the alarm still work when it's been set? Thu 3 Mar 2005 08:15 Vectra Alarm Reset - Deryck Tintagel Yes, I double-checked that the doors, bonnet, boot were shut and interior light was off. I had a quick check of the bonnet switch whilst I armed the alarm - closing any open door should cause the LED to go constant whilst arming - but no luck. I even unplugged the bonnet switch just in case but that didn't help either! Answer to the second question. Yes it seems to work - I unlocked the driver's door with the key and opened the door causing the main sounder to go off. I haven't checked the other doors / ultrasonics yet. I need the light to be able to check the car over so a job for Saturday after its wash. Mon 7 Mar 2005 08:19 Vectra Alarm Reset - Deryck Tintagel I tried disconnecting and reconnecting the battery but this hasn't helped. I tried a few times with various attempts at locking and unlocking to see if that helped. All switches are OK - so back to main dealer I reckon!Fuse Location 4K vauxhall Vectra (windows not working) faulty switch vectra c change time or date ..when clocks change for summer and winter..

had problem today, and had eml on. have sorted the problem (hopefully) but the eml light is still on. How can I get rid of it ?any ideas chaps ? thanks in advance
#1 Alright dudes One of the birds in work has a '54 Corsa and the INSP light comes on every time she starts it. She has had a quote from Vauxhall to do a service including new plugs for ÂŁ250 and they will extinguish the light at the same time. Now, I have never paid for a service in my life but I think ÂŁ250 sounds a bit steep and she'd be better off going to an indy. But she's a woman and the most important thing to her is getting the light sorted out Any way of manually resetting this? Or is it doable with a pretty standard reader/comm port that most garages will have? Cheers! #2 I think it's pressing and holding the button on the odometer as you start the car. #3 most cars have a manual override procedure My citroen picasso you pressed the trip computer setup button while starting the car and it reset it. Quick google should reveal the result hopefully. Off to search for you now. #4 Cheers lads, I'm in work at the mo and internet access here is quite restricted #5 Just had to do this on my mums, had the service and they didnt reset the light: put your key in ignition but dont turn it hold your milage reset button until INSP shows (around 5 seconds) turn your key in ignition but dont start car, INSP _ _ _ _ will show press the brake pedal and it will reset to insp 19000 turn key back to off and there u go #6 vauxhallownersnetworkforum said: Not sure if anyone knows but you can reset your service inspection lamp on your Vectra C, Astra H and Corsa C & D with out the aid of any diagnostic tools.

Best to check if is needing serviced because it's a common problem with the INSP warning coming on even when it's not due.Vectra C ABS warning light - if this illuminates during normal operating conditions it means there is a fault within the ABS system. The chances are it is an ABS sensor which needs to be replaced. First, you need to use a fault code scanner which will locate the fault sensor (your Vectra has 4)
