  Footwell lighting
Posted by: SI SRI - 6:th-Nov-2014, 21:50:57 - Forum: Astra-J/GTC - Replies (8)

  The start of Adren Blue
Posted by: Rusty2009 - 6:th-Nov-2014, 17:43:35 - Forum: Astra-J/GTC - Replies (40)

Well thanks to Baz for selling me the Arden blue air vent covers I have now decided to go ahead with my Arden Blue interior colour scheme.



The best bit is the wife is in full agreement and is also trying to talk me into doing the handles on the VXR wheel (I'm not sure on that one).


  Connects2 interface box constant power.
Posted by: Rusty2009 - 5:th-Nov-2014, 20:14:39 - Forum: Astra-J/GTC - Replies (14)

So jumped in the car this morning everything was normal got to where I was going and turned off and removed key Radio Dab & phone charger still on.

Should all turn off, so used the buttons to turn them off, same thing happened when I got home, pulled everything out and checked all the wiring everything fine.

thought about the 12v battery wire (used for storing time date etc) and the red ACC wires might want swapping over, but then on reflection it's all been fine till today.

So with that in mind I set the find the wires on the connects2 plug what I find is it only has a yellow wire from car connector to the connects2 interface box then the box puts out a battery and ACC feed.

That got me thinking is the interface box at fault, so I got the old one (that has a Bluetooth fault) plugged it in and guess what the radio turns off when the car is turned off.

So quite what's happened I don't know, weather connects2 will replace the box I don't know as its almost 2yrs old but I think it should last longer.

  High Beam Assist and LED street lights
Posted by: JohnL - 3:rd-Nov-2014, 15:31:16 - Forum: Astra-J/GTC - Replies (8)

Does anyone else's car struggle to detect that there are LED street lights so sticks main beam on?

They have recently replaced all the local street lights to the LED style which is great but now if I have High Beam Assist switched on the car thinks there are no street lights so it puts high beam on.
