  CD 400 Plus
Posted by: Roshi69 - 2:nd-Mar-2019, 00:15:06 - Forum: ICE - Replies (1)

Hi guys,

I see a lot of posts about the CD 400 Plus, some people have USB only, Some have USB/AUX some have USB/AUX/BT....

I Have all 3 in mine but the BT only is used for handsfree..

When you go to pair a new device it says in brackets (Handsfree) and shows on the android device as a Bluetooth headset icon.

My question is... is there ANY way i can get the damn thing to play bluetooth audio from my phone? I mean its a 2015 car and to only accept handsfree as the form of BT connection is laughable lol

Also my AUX is sooooo quiet compared to my DAB (Phone is up full, tried spotify and local music and equalizers on and off but still crap)

  Happyblue module ambient lights
Posted by: Kdun - 1:st-Mar-2019, 20:59:46 - Forum: Astra-J/GTC - Replies (1)

Hi
Has anybody with a happyblue module managed to get the ambient light function working on a astra gtc its meant to keep the chosen lights on after the car has been stopped and the door opened. The rear lights and front indicators are the only lights that I can get to work the front headlights or DRL's won't stay on. 
Would be good to hear if other people have managed to get this working on a gtc


  Opcom Fault Codes
Posted by: murasakizo - 1:st-Mar-2019, 11:37:33 - Forum: Astra-J/GTC - Replies (3)

Hi everyone,

Just to give some background on why I decided to purchase an OpCom reader, I've been having the following issues on my J GTC 1.4:

  • Strange limp mode without warning lights/messages (accelerate to a certain RPM in a certain gear causes it to lose around 60% of power. It goes back to normal if I restart the car)
  • Cold start higher revs than normal - needle ticks past the 1k RPM range for a couple of minutes and then lowers to a normal rate
  • Starting the engine after a start/stop revs go up and down. The needle goes up and down for a few seconds - sometimes it almost feels like it's stalling
I've recently had it serviced which I thought may of had a positive effect but no joy.

I bought and had a play with OpCom last night. Some of the settings work but most end up "Initialising ECU" and spam my dash with all of the warnings. 

When I go into Engine and choose any of the 1.4 options, nothing happens - I can't see to it to work. It just says "Initialising ECU" and does nothing.

Has anyone got it to work?

Thanks everyone.

HELP!
A16XER engine I have replaced the head gasket and now it wont start. I know its going to be something silly that ive done but my brain is fried!
Turns over ok, P0016 & P0017 stored which relates to the correlation between CMP and CKP sensors. Ive checked timing, compression, fuel and spark but still wotn start.
Any ideas?

Cheers

Hi Guys,

Just picked my White Astra GTC 1.4Turbo (140) up on Monday.

Big change from the RS Clio 200, a lot less nippy and responsive but more practical and should save me some ££.

So comfy compared to what im used to. I'll get some pics up later

Loving it so far and will become and active member of the forums as usual.

Thanks,
Ross

Hi Guys,

Show me your mobile phone holders/solutions.

Need to get myself one and the wee vent one doesn't seem too suitable for the GTC.

Thanks
