I'm thinking it's got to be a wiring issue, or quite possibly the aftermarket parts being poor

unfortunately, light came back on whilst driving home last night. looks like its a costly one..

cleared the fault light, it hasnt come instantly back which is promising! as before it was coming back instantly when i cleared it. fingers crossed it was a fuse error.

yes correct, there was a yellow fuse in this socket, and the rest was all red they was actually labelled with the amp aswell

changed the fuse last night, havent had chance to clear the fault yet, but it seems as though there was a 5A fuse in 29 which the diagram says should have been 10A

yes, thats fine, im happy its cheap! think the garage will charge me around £70 to fit the part too so isnt too expensive, just need it fixed now, getting stressful with MOT due soon

Thanks again Nige, thats cheaper than the aftermarket part i brought. i shall try the fuse method tonight, failing that i will give this part one more try and order it tomorrow and get a local garage to fit for me. appreciate all your time and help! have a great day bud

thats the reason i tried the part a second time, i thought the same after the first time, but i thought surely i cant buy 2 parts that dont work. maybe i should bite the bullet and just get a genuine part from skoda, or maybe even take it to a garage and get them to look as they will offer warranty, i was just trying to get this fixed cheaply but my time is now running out with MOT due next month

hi Nige, it was just an aftermarket part from amazon, i have tried two different branded ones from amazon, i didnt fancy paying the £130 Skoda wanted for a genuine one. https://www.amazon.co.uk/AUTOHAUX-Auxiliary-Coolant-6R0965561A-Engine/dp/B089VVLT6P/ref=asc_df_B089VVLT6P/?tag=googshopuk-21&linkCode=df0&hvadid=499328239324&hvpos=&hvnetw=g&hvrand=5559810292906137484&hvpone=&hvptwo=&hvqmt=&hvdev=c&hvdvcmdl=&hvlocint=&hvlocphy=1006933&hvtargid=pla-1425868710912&psc=1

i have this same code. i have changed the pump twice but both times the error comes back around 30minutes later or after some short driving, any ideas?

hi Nige, its just been the one fault code i have got each time. P261a. it says manufacturer control. not the best with cars.

will do, i shall change the fuse tonight and put it on the reader tomorrow and see if i can clear the fault and il be back here with the results, have a great day

perfect! il be sure to try this as would be a lovely cheap fix! appreciate your time and effort to look into this!

thanks pete! i will grab a fuse on my way home from work today and give that a try, is it a 10amp fuse that i need? regards

hi Pete, thanks for the speedy reply, i have a 1.2 TDI Greenline engline .
