Thread: Odd EAS "feature"!

Ah so.... and an echo of this in Asimov's "I, Robot" plus the film of the same name.

There was an episode of a science-fiction pulp series that borrowed the concept too...

Whatever, your P38's ECUs have random bits of code that have coalesced into Evil Intentions.

Or, the mind of Sir Joseph Lucas has found a home...

Or

Arthur Koestlers book based on Gilbert Rye's description.

The "ghost in the machine" is British philosopher Gilbert Ryle's description of René Descartes' mind-body dualism.


Certainly fits the P38 and even has a Frenchman involved, presumably for the HEVAC system

... Oui

Ron,

mine did it when the car was left in reverse, as when I first bought the car it used to be reverse into the garage, and it took me a few days to click to why the battery was going flat fast.

Don't recall trying other gears.

Didn't do it after TRS put a new BECM in it.

Just checked then and nope - doesn't do it in 3rd.

Another new "feature" but on my other P38A. A few days ago, around midnight, it turned on its driving lights. When the door was opened, they turned off.

Its sounds as if you have a dodgy connector or earth somewhere on the beast
