am beginning to think so because;

My EAS is now behaving itself after i discussed bypassing the EAS delay relay.

Today I was in Bursons and was discussing the tiny bulb which lights up the ring around the ignition key (trying to find out what they are called) then when i went back to the rangie, the light was working again !

I somehow suspect that not everything is going to "auto-fix" itself though ;)

You are 100% correct!

It's the day you say "never had a problem with my P38" that things start playing up!

For instance, I mentioned in a thread that my battery was a great little unit, always starts the engine after sitting for weeks, then it died. I replaced my interior light globes with LED's and commented that they were great, now my dome lights don't work at all. And I had commented on how good the Gen III bags were in my Rangie, then I popped one.

They know hey... Psychic machines!

I think psychotic could sometimes be an apt description as well as psychic :confused:

Damn that Prince of Darkness he'll get you when you least expect. No wait ! Thats just the Gems models.

I am sure a relative of the Prince has taken up residence in the Thor models as well, perhaps he is not so active, but he is certainly present !

Same thing happened to us.
Was saying to the father in law how great eas is, and that it can be pretty reliable - next morning when we leave camp the right rear bag goes down - as soon as the expected jokes start flying from my brothers and him it decides to stay up (exhaust heated up the bag sufficiently by then to expand the rubber and close over the whole).

It makes you take a second think sometimes.

Didn't get any peace and quiet for the rest of the day though... even though the previous day we drove a line with very low road tires the father in law with 33 inch MTs and a rear locker didn't.

Good on you Steve. Many times my RR2 plays up electronically and sometimes just waiting seems to sort it. Seems the weather has a lot to do with it, like arthritis sufferers when the air pressure changes and they don't work right. You must have heard the old adage of " I can tell its gunna rain my arthritis is playing up " The solenoids especially are affected by air pressure and condensation inside the doors electrics. Thats what happens to my car at times and considering it a 18 yo electronic 4wd thats ok

Good Luck To You

These cars have made me a firm believer in reinCARnation. I think the last part on the assembly line is a soul. Corny but true.

Cheers.:)
