[Convenience module]

Is it still doing it?

I only ask because I've seen some of those symptoms 2 or 3 times, but (as is traditional with computers) switching everything off and on again seemed to fix it.

There was no obvious cause when it happened to me, although one day was particularly thundery so maybe something atmospheric did it.

Yes. The problems still exist. I have looked for any physical problems (such as water in connections) but it all looks OK.

I have not found the "convenience module" but reacon that it is probably under the speedometer unit. Any help would be welcome.

Try disconnecting the battery for 10 minutes.

Thanks! I did try disconnecting Battery overnight BUT that made no difference to the problems.

1)Window switches have swapped so that they operate the wrong side of the car.

2)External mirrors have swapped so that the controls operate the passenger mirror OR both mirrors.

3)Drivers courtesy light does not work {so no lights reminder and tailgate lock does not open properly}.

4) Central Locking does not work.

5) Door deadlocks do not work.

My analysis is that these problems are all caused by the Convenience Module switching itself to left hand drive mode. Can this Module be re-programmed to RHD again?

Help!!

You are most likely correct in your fault analysis. There could be another reason but this is the most likely event that has happened. Had any work done on it lately? Battery been disconected? I think you should speak with your Skoda dealer about reprogramming it. Unless someone more knowledgeable about your model than me can give you definitive instructions. You will probably need some tech equipment to do it. Incidentally, you have posted in the Fabia 2 forum...but always nice to speak to you guys! Good luck!

No reason for problems to start as have not had work done of car recently.

Thanks for suggestion. No Skoda dealer for miles but will make contact. Reliable Local dealer has closed down.

Sorry that i got to the wrong forum.

[Fabia EPC Light]

Hello chajxf.

Earlier this week, i had the same problem. Worth a look at the thread (link below).

Local independant garage has just used his diagnostic kit. The problem is shown as Exhaust recirculating valve and another related fault. He says this is common on several cars including Vauxhall. He says that it is particularly likely if you take a longer journey after loads of town drivinh. He has cleared the fault memory on my car's computer and reset it. So far so good !!

Thanks for the tip Lummox.

I note that there is some sort of modification to the Brake Light Switch. But I cannot find any fault with its operation. (ie the stop lights work pervectly and go off when the brakes are off. Is it still likely to cause this warning lamp fault?

The engine managemment light has also come on today and will not go off.

There appears to be no problem with the way the car is running.

I dont have access to the fault code detecting computer and guess that i have got to find someone who has.

[After some answers really]

I think that the light is for EPC rather than ECP.

It stands for Electronic Power Control.

I have got problems with mine and am also seeking the answer of thread "EPC" that i launched yesterday.

I have a Fabia 1.4 16V

The EPC light has started to flicker and then stays on. When the engiune is swithched off the EPC light goes off ad stays off for a couple of days. Then we start all over again.

I have had a similar, random operation of the engine management light but the dealer could find no speciofic fault.

Any clues would be helpful.
