Starting - Buick - Lesabre :: Security Light Illuminated On Dashboard / Cannot Start Car
Every once-in-a-while I've noticed a "security" light is illuminated on my dash-board. When this happens, I can't start my 92' Buick LeSabre for about 5-minutes or so. Aggravating, to say the least. Is there something I can do? Including "disabling" it?

When I insert the key, there is current to the dashboard and the steering wheel moves into position. When I try to start the car, the dashboard is illuminated- the radio comes on etc- but the starter does not engage all. It's totally quiet. I remove the key, insert the key and try again. Sometimes the starter engages, sometimes not. When it cranks, it starts right up. The battery is good. We had the ignition switch changed out a while back, but it didn't really improve the situation.
View 2 RepliesElantra MD (2010-15) :: TPMS Light On Dashboard Is Illuminated / Valve Stem Caps Broken
2012 Elantra GLS. Wife comes home and says the TPMS (tire pressure monitoring system) light on the dash is lit. I check the tire pressure. None abnormally low but I decide to top them off. Notice that two of the valve stem caps are broken. The tips are broken off so I can see the little red gasket. On opposite sides of the car. No damage to the wheel covers. The valve stems don't stick out past the wheel covers so I wonder how the caps could have gotten broken. Could that be why the TPS system is giving me a warning? If by chance there was a pressure issue does the light reset itself or does the dealer have to do it?

Phaeton :: Trunk Lights Illuminated Permanently?
Following a storm last week, my car had a completely discharged convenience battery. The carpet in the driver's (RHS) footwell was soaked, and I vacuumed out about a pint of water. The right front sunroof drain was blocked, so I massaged the duckbill valve and got this working again. The carpet is now completely dried out.
I fully recharged the battery using a mains charger, but two days later it was flat again. I ran a VCDS scan, found and reset lots of fault codes for low battery. I then discovered that the trunk lights were not turning off when the trunk lid closed, hence the battery discharge. The measuring block for trunk lights shows 0% however. The power trunk lid operates correctly from all switches and the remote.
All other vehicle functions seem to be working OK. I have removed the fuse for the trunk lights temporarily, but obviously would like to get them working properly again.

Phaeton :: No Difference When DRLs Are On Or Front Headlamps Are Illuminated At Night
Quick question regarding the daytime running lamps. It appears there is no difference when the DRL's are on or when the front headlamps are illuminated at night. Even if I turn the switch to off, and the DRL's are on, it looks no different then when the headlights are on. Is this normal? Are the DRL's just the headlamps turned on or are they normally the small incandescent light as found on lesser VW's?
View 17 RepliesPhaeton :: No Lights In Dashboard
I have a problem with Phaeton dashboard. There are no more lights in dashboard (speedometer, tachometer, etc.)
The small screen between speedometer and tachometer works just fine. If I use + and - buttons (which are designed to operate dashboard lights), the only thing that works - red arrows. I mean that red arrows in speedometer and tachometer DO LIGHT, but everything else remains black. No matter what position lights switch is in, dashboard has no lights.
It has happened when local dealer has updated engine software, but now they tell me it's a dashboard problem and they have nothing to do about it (unless I will pay for new dashboard). I guess software updating to version 0223 (I have 0220 now) won't work?
Phaeton :: Vehicle Too Low Sign Popped Up On Dashboard
I have a 2004 3.2 V6, which I have had for several months now and it's great. This morning when I took the car out of the garage, I heard a beep and a red 'Vehicle too Low' sign popped up on the dashboard. On a careful and steady short drive to work, I noticed that my suspension felt light and that regular bumps on the road felt more pronounced, also the front of the car looks slightly lower than the back.

I have a warning light on dashboard and bleep saying "Workshop Exhaust" and showing orange engine icon.
This first happened when I bought the car in November 2014, then went off after about two days, but is becoming more frequent two or three times a month.
I travel about a mile and a half to work each day, and have a longer run usually once a month, I have been told to select 3rd gear and when warm to drive for perhaps 10 miles to clear any build up of emissions.

View 2 RepliesPhaeton :: 2008 - Dashboard Stopped Working?
We have a 2008 LWB Phaeton. It had some bodywork done on the back wheel arch last week ( neighbour ran into it!) and a tyre reconditioned. As we drove away from the garage we noticed that the whole of the dashboard was not working nothing at all, no speedo, rev, fuel etc etc.
Took it to vw who ran a quick test and thought it may be an earth somewhere as the voltage was reading 10 and not of 12, but couldn't find out where as they would need to look at diagrams on a Phaeton as they don't see many, and they were not able to do for another two weeks.
Our car is currently sitting in an independent garage, who normally look after it, with their mechanics scratching their heads as to whats wrong with it. As they said its like the ignition is not speaking to the the dash etc.
Phaeton :: Dashboard Displays Trunk Open Although Its Closed
owner of a 2003' Phaeton V10. I have two issues with the car, the first one is : even if the trunk is closed, it appears to be open on the dashboard. I saw one or 2 cut wires ... The other issue is that i don't understand what does the symbol close to the tyres' one mean.

My Scangauge is mounted on the dash just above the steering wheel. My last car, a Subaru Impreza had lots of room on the steering column. On the 2010 Prius it's very difficult to see when mounted there.
Cold weather is setting in and the glue on the velcro is starting to give out and the Gauge will soon fall. Where are you mounting them? How are you getting them to stick?
