  Reversing camera help
Posted by: Astrajosh - 12:th-Jun-2018, 19:35:22 - Forum: Request for information - Replies (6)

So I'm adding In a cheap Chinese reversing camera.
I'm using a relay to bring on the camera I'm sorted with how I'm going to wire it, just one thing stumped me.

https://imgur.com/gallery/PwuhgbJ

I expected the green/white cable to still be in colour when it passed through to the boot lid.

I haven't had the roof lining off yet just wondered if anyone knew if there was a connection on the car side in the roof lining with the correct colour? And if there is where is it roughly? Or even is there a better place to find the green/white cable?

I know there's one right at the front to do the diming mirror as I've fitted that already.

P.s mine is a facelift model so no rear fuse unit.

  Astra GTC Biturbo paint damage
Posted by: marktourino - 12:th-Jun-2018, 07:47:46 - Forum: Members car's progress threads - Replies (1)

I had a Astra SRI 1.7 which was written off by the insurance company, I decided to buy an Astra GTC Biturbo which I picked up on Monday Week, on the Wednesday I drove down to Rusty 2009 house for some upgrades to IPC & to replace the Car Vision unit with my Pioneer avic-f88, however I had an accident with wall approaching the alleyway where Rusty's garage & scraped the paint off down to the primer on my driver's side rear wheel arch, did get repair done by a company called Revive, left me £240 out of pocket but the result was well worth the money spent, pictures to arrive shortly.

Hi,

I’m relatively new to this forum and I wanted to start by introducing myself properly...

My name is Conor, I am 20 & I had been saving up for a Vauxhall GTC for nearly 2 years and finally purchased one outright from Evans Halshaw Vauxhall a couple of weeks ago, I am absolutely over the moon with it (Great cars imo).

I have a Vauxhall GTC SRI CDTI 2.0 S/S 165ps

It is a 64 Reg (First registered Jan 2015)

Also only 18,000 on the clock...

Even before buying the vehicle I wanted to do a fair few customisations to it and what a way to kick it off with a full LED upgrade...

The LED’s I purchased were:

- Main + Full Beam
- DRL’s
- Number Plates
- Reverse Light
- Interior Light

[Image: f378deff0ceb2a18ee669cdbdb306f35.png]

My plans for the future are as follows:

- Limited Edition Spoiler
- Body Coloured Rear Bumper (LE / Bi-Turbo)
- Limited Edition 20” Alloys?
- Navi 950 Fit
- Tinted Tail & Front Lights
- Interior SMD’s / Ambient Light Colour change
- Footwell Ambient Lighting
- Body Coloured Bumper & Grill?
- Darkened Upholstery?
- Dashboard & Door ambient rope lighting
- LED Tail Lights
- Roof Wrapped Gloss Black

Navi 950 & SMDs with the help of Rusty2009’s amazing magic.

Thanks.

Thumbs Up ABS sensor/ fault codes
Posted by: wrobsongtc - 7:th-Jun-2018, 20:02:42 - Forum: Astra-J/GTC Technical - Replies (8)

Had service ESP warning light come on, the TC light and ABS light came on.

I've had the codes read, one was drivers side front ABS wheel speed sensor and the other was for ABS pump.

Got both cleared and esp warning came back on straight away from leaving the garage, I have changed the sensor now and had 4 hours of warning light free driving today [Image: thumbsup.png].

However the ESP warning has come back on, I've not had it back to have the codes cleared since the sensor was changed, is it required or am I looking at something else being the issue as I doubt another sensor has gone.

Cheers,

Will

  Anyone know what this connector is?
Posted by: Astrajosh - 7:th-Jun-2018, 17:15:18 - Forum: Request for information - Replies (7)

I've found this in my car today it's drivers side just behind the obd port.

Had a look on the forums and could only see someone on about the green DAB one.

Curiosity killed the car and all that.

Cheers

Hi

I had a Astra 1.7 Sri 62 plate model which only had aftermarket front & rear parking sensors & front & rear mudfIaps, I did further modifications to the car with Rusty 2009 who knowledge & helpfulness is second to none, which included electric rear windows, front heated & rear leather seats, IPC upgrade, engine remap to 160 bhp, illuminated gear stick, pioneer avic-f88 dab, interior LED lights, I was going to have the rear windows tinted & the rear reflectors change to rear foglights with an added rear reversing light, however my car was written off so another car I was after.

I saw two Astras one being a plate 2.0 elite or a Astra 2.0 GTC Biturbo, only one choice for me really, as I live in Portsmouth & the car was at the car dealers in Leeds, I put a deposit down on the car immediately on the Friday & picked the car up on the Monday, really impressed with the car, however I wasn't impressed with the car vision system which couldn't handle the Infinity sound speakers & didn't have a patch on my Pioneer so I changed back to my Pioneer avic-f88 dab, only modifications so far being IPC menu upgrade which Rusty did the programming, specfications are far to many to mention but I will put pictures up of the car as soon as I figure out how to download pictures.

  ‘Eco’ tab on GTC?
Posted by: Conor97 - 6:th-Jun-2018, 20:12:14 - Forum: Request for information - Replies (4)

Hi,

My trip computer currently displays all the usual information, however I seem to be missing the 3rd ‘Eco’ tab, is there a way to activate it? I have a 64 plate SRI 2.0 CDTI, I’m pretty sure i’ve seen it on older models? 

Thanks.
