You have turned the steering from lock to lock 3 times

Malcolm,
Yes, & reset the windows etc. Fault intermittent, that's why I thought it may be a relay.

I think I may have it is the first 6 numbers of the VIN number 203035

The ESP control module can get oxidation on the contacts of the ESP module, the fix is to replace the wiring to the module, the fault is on pins 3-5-7 in the connector. I would get a good quality switch cleaner -lubricant and clean them up and see how that goes.

The fault code is C1185 if you have the codes read out.

This must be the easiest thing to try yourself, there other faults listed, but this one fits the bill

Malcolm,
Very grateful to you. I will try this to-morrow and come back to you with the result. Good of you to take the time so late at night. ' Over & out for tonight'
Again, mant thanks.

Hi Rukako,
