Re: PS4 pre-order

Still getting an issue with getting the EPAS to power on. Got a new column and ECU that has only covered 33k. I'm working through it slowly with the guy that sold the wiring kit. He is helping me find the solution. Got the car set up in Blink today as well. Top guy.

I'm finding it hard not to buy this for the 360, but I'll be waiting until next gen . 3 weeks until PS4 :-)

I think I have one at home, would you like me to look? I removed it last year

Thanks, hopefully I'm not that unlucky to have another faulty one ;-)

Well got a new column and ECU on the way. Hopefully will be with me tomorrow. Only covered 33k. Cross fingers on this one. Lol.

Mines the same, quick job to spray over it TBH. Will do it over winter sometime

Your videos are the ones that made me buy my cup 5 years ago!

Ok mate, remember to unplug the + terminal and it should be fine

I've had it since I bought the car

I still have my old one out the cup if you wanted it Dan? Works fine. £20 and its yours?

Yes, can visibly see the column move. I don't turn the wheel, keep it stationary but rock it left to right

Cheers for the offer, I'll keep that in mind. Yeah should get it sorted quite quickly. Will remove the faulty one tomorrow. Just been unlucky I suppose. Did you fit the heat shield back over the rack after installing the DCI rack? Is it needed if you don't have fluid any more?

I'm determined to get it sorted :-). Yeah only 30mins away from Wrexham. The Mrs lives in Llay so I go there quite a bit. Yes definitely mate, would be good. :-)

Re: PS4 pre-order No estimation on my Game order either. I ordered it on the 16th of August. Hoping I'll get it early December

The column and ECU was off an 01 car. So yeah I do agree its probably done some work. The rack was off a 05 car which had only covered 54k. The sticker is still on it. That's in good nick. I phoned renparts today, going to get another column and ECU. She is giving me a call back to see if...

Column. Can see it give

Well I fitted the 60 amp fuse same as the others have, rechecked everything and still not firing up. Opened the ECU up and it had a little burn mark in one place. Will be sending it back I think. Also the column has slight play in it when you hold the steering wheel and rock it side to side...

Matched to the colours in the guide you mean? Yes they have.

When the ignition is off all the little wires in the eBay kit have no power in them. When I turn the ignition on they have power in them. No it looks tidy, no visible damage

Yep, turned each way, still no go :-( power does come to the terminals fine though. Feeling more likely that its a dodgy ECU

Did you buy your column and ECU new or second hand?

I live in the middle of nowhere! Lol. I'll try the fuse tomorrow. If it doesn't work I'll ask my mate if he can borrow me his ECU from his DCi. Are they a known fault in the DCi's do you know?

Cheers for your help guys. I've wired all the connections as the guide says. I'll try changing the fuse to a 60amp. I've also spliced the red cable running from the battery to the ECU to the old wire that clips into the ECU. That could also have an issue as Maplins said its only rated to 48amp...

No it hasn't blown, yes the earth is the same gauge. I've just read on the Internet that the fuse needs to allow enough amperage through for the unit it needs to run?

Yes triple checked them, but I think I've found the issue! I'm running a 30 amp fuse. So the unit isn't getting enough amperage!!! School boy error

Right, re-soldered the 12v wire and still no luck! When I turn on the ignition it still doesn't click. But power is supplied to each connection. So the 12v does work. Stuck in the mud. Gonna punch the car in a min :-(

Cheers for the link, I believe I need to solder a wire that feeds into the 12v ignition, instead of quick splicing it. I think it's connected badly

Can't get the EPAS to work yet, think my wiring skills are to blame! Will have another go tonight
