Just typed the error codes into google. Found this video and hey presto it was the fuse after all. https://youtu.be/59sFUSS3VLw?si=k5ADuD4rfsid8ylJ Thanks Pete for suggesting that from the beginning - turns out I was looking at the wrong bank of fuses. Doh!

I got a cable for £3.50. Claude helped me install the driver in 30 seconds. Plugged into the car and it worked first time! Here are the screenshots I got, but not sure what they mean. https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1RrrQpLunigkdmpWAPc5K2o4CmubcKtdS?usp=drive_link

Excellent. I just ordered a KKL cable and will see what it can do when it arrives. Cheers

I hadn't so I just took the car out for 6 minutes doing about 20mph. So roughly 2miles travelled. Turned the ignition off and then on. Warning light and beeping is still there. I like to think that there is something obvious that I am missing...

Thanks Pete. I pulled each fuse out and tested it with the multimeter for continuity. They all passed. All fuses back in their slots and the warning light is still on. What would you try next?

So I was very impressed to see the exact fuse slightly proud (~3mm) of the others when I looked on top of the battery. I pushed it back in but the error still remains. So my question now is if I pull out this fuse and the others to inspect or check will it create other errors in the process?

Interesting. So I’m now contemplating buying OBDeleven. I’ve only just found it but people on Reddit seem to like it. It costs €120 and I’m imagining that the mechanic will charge at least that. Is there potentially anything about this repair that will necessitate taking to a mechanic in the end?

Yesterday our Roomster started beeping and flashing the warning light about the ABS. My first thought was to replace the ABS sensors – they are around £7 each and seem to be easy enough to replace by removing the rear wheels. I could also give the connections a bit of a clean at the same time. What are my chances chances of fixing the issue within 45 minutes of DIY work? I don’t have any diagnostic tools, but if this is a common fault with an easy fix it would be great to know what other peoples experiences. ScreenRecording_06-05-2026 12-39-50_1.mov

I thought I would use my bank holiday to have another go at fixing my control module issue. The module seems to be in the correct position but it wont clip in. See video here.. https://youtu.be/IE5NAaIqxoE?feature=shared Has anyone got a Roomster or a mk2 Fabia and can share a photo or video to show how this module is oriented and the positioning of the cabling?

Seems like I didn’t clip it in properly as the mechanic recently noticed it was still loose. https://imgur.com/a/DU5xYxT from this video (see link), is the control module the correct orientation? If so I will try again to clip it in to place.

Our beloved Roomster just failed its MOT because the seat belt doesn't retract properly. I can see that the part is on ebay for £38 and I am tempted to have a go at fitting it myself at the weekend. Does anyone know how difficult it is to replace that part? I am assuming I will have to disassemble the inner panels in the boot but have never taken them off before.

I wish I had read this post more carefully. Sliding the seat forwards is the key as it revealed the catches which I opened very easily with a screw driver.

I have the same exact problem. I found a piece of broken metal in the boot and the seat won’t release. See photo I have been wrestling with a screwdriver and spanner to release the latch or undo the nut. Neither approach is working unfortunately

Great! Thanks Pete🙂

A while back, a garage did some electrical diagnostic work and when I went to collect the car it hadn't been put back together properly. The garage had amazing google reviews but the work was very poor. Lesson learned. Door trim was half off and the control module was not properly fitted. See photo attached. I've had a look on youtube for something that covers fitting this, but have had no luck. Also I'm not sure which screws I are missing.
