Featured Replies

Hello,

 

My Fabia is having electrical problems, it shut down while my wife was driving, first the dash board died then 30 sec later the car stopped.. The strange thing is that a lot of electrical things is not working, we cannot op

en the trunk, hazard light not working and so on, but other things like the interior light and cabin fan is working, also front light is working.... My wife who was alone in the car thougt she could fix the problem by switching the fuses...!!!!! dammmnnnnnn !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! so now i am ended up with not knowing 100'% if the fuses are in the correct position... will you please look at the pictures and see if you can spot if there is something wrong with the fuses that is importent to run the car.  Fabia 2010, 1,6tdi,

we could not possibly know all of which needs to be there as all vehicles are different.

 

The link "you" posted has a good list of equipment and what it should be.

 

REF the vehicle dying, could be signs that the battery and OR the alternator is dying / died.

The rear window wiper worked but not the hazard light and the battery was charged, so i am sure that it is not an alternator or battery problem..

 

What i would like to know is if there is any important fuses that is missing, as an exsample i am very much in doubt with fuse 24 , it is missing, should it be there in a 2010 1,6tdi manual gearbox?

24 Central control unit of the vehicle

In the earlier version of circuit diagrams, fuse 24 is shown as 10A and described as "Central locking motor in rear lid". So that looks relevant.

Looks like there should be a fuse in position 18.

 

Generally if you can see a metal metal contact at both ends of the fuse holder it should have a fuse in.

Not a particular help, and I do not wish to offend either..... But it does sound like this vehicle should not be on the road with these issues.

May depend what country you are in?.

 

No Hazard lights would be an mot fail I guess, and if the car is shutting down whilst someone is driving then the hazard lights could prove invaluable if they worked.

Hopefully you can get your issues sorted.

Thanks for answers..

 

Now my mechanic has found that all fuses is correct. He also found what caused all this, it was the starter motor that had jammed, so the engine was turning the starter motor while driving, that fits perfect with what my wife told, se could hear a Strange noise while driving, comming from the right side of the engine (but she did not stop) so therefore the starter motor has made a lot of electrical noise. Now i have all this electrical problems and the engine wont start. He talked about that it could be the control Unit for Windows, lights, wipers and so (ccm?)

what do you think? Is the ccm easy to replace? What else could be damaged by the noise from a spinning startermotor?

This is corrected for RHD mk2, you need to cross reference fuse rating with your hand book

As a safety reminder, yes. Thanks.

Additionally, have you or the mechanic checked the fuses under the bonnet? There are some fuses and a fusible link/busbar usually found in the plastic cover on top of the battery.
