Hi guys does anyone have a fault code reader in Perth that would be willing to hook up to see why my engine light is on, willing to come to your place if suitable. Cheers stropp

Well went to xlr8's place today and put the scanner on and NO fault codes but the light is still on wtf! Anyway while I was there had a look at the sliders and came home with a new set fitted up, thanks a lot mate. Anyone have any ideas with the fault code?

I will have a look through my emails as I think I was sent a copy of the fault codes but they may only be for the 4.8 but will check

Mine is a 4.2 ltr turbo, there are no fault codes at all showing so not sure, I have also tried the battery off overnight but will leave it off for a couple of days during the week and see what happens.

Apart from not being able to find a fault code........ a win win ending anyway, although a little costlier than you probably first thought lol....... so which ones did you get?

Maybe l300 in the WPC might be able to help with his little gadget

Jason it was the consult setup that we used so not sure what the go is and everything looks good on the readings.
