Thread: Lost power to internals HEVAC, windows etc

Hi mate no we swapped the entire BECM and the ECU from the other car.

Turns out the original ECU is a bit screwed sadly.

I am now in the hunt for a 99 GEMS ECU

I sent you a PM about a BECM repair

That could be hard to find. GEMS is up to 1998MY only.

Thought I'd read that Shirley had put a new fuse box in the car.

Let me know if you want to try a known good spare fuse box that I have.

It just happened again yesterday so I think i will take you up on the offer of the fuse box mate

One problem is that if I turn the ignition off and on again it all comes good, so nothing to check with a meter sadly

I can now confirm it's related to the fuse box.

It happened in a spot where I could pull over and open the bonnet, I wiggled the fuse box and hey presto everything came back on !

Steve,

I missed your earlier post. Long story, but I sold the used fuse box I obtained from the UK via ebay - but posted it to the wrong address (not completely my fault I might add). Good chap that I am, I've sent the buyers my original fuse box - hoping the wrong address people return the UK one "to sender".

I've fitted a new one on mine. If I get the UK sourced fuse box back, you're welcome to try it/buy it. I'll let you know how I go.

Regards. Sean.

That wouldn't be the fusebox to Ballarat would it?
