Car Stuff

– January 27, 2010

Remember how my car battery was always becoming empty if I hadn’t drove it for a few days. Like when I left it at Heathrow Airport while I was on holiday.

Well the other day I got a letter that said that there’s a problem with the “Honda Civic Hybrid Fusebox MICU”. Apparently it controls a number of electrical systems, and is meant to go to sleep when the car is locked. But there’s some software problem that means that isn’t happening, and the battery gets drained.

So I booked it in to get it fixed (hence the spanner)

Yes, I really don’t have anything else to write about on my blog. Life is good, everything is great. I have nothing to bitch about.

Electrics in cars these days make things a hell of a lot harder to diagnose and fix if something central fucks up.

That is why modern cars have a self diagnosing system that can be easily read with a computer.

This is becoming a gap in the market where people can’t just spend a day popping open their bonnet and playing about – forcing them to have it repaired officially, which can be rather expensive.

I once got a letter from Vauxhall that stated my car was being recalled as there is was fault with my specific engine model that could possibly cause oil to leak out, and in the worst case, “self-ignite”. Dangerous.

So, I left it and forgot before they sent another almost a year later.

They don’t have to be officially repaired (Which is extremely expensive) third party garages can do it much cheaper (You just need to find the right one)

What about when the self-diagnosis system goes kaput?

It’s happened in 2 of my family’s cars in the past 4 months.

How ironic, I posted before about how modern cars are equipped with an engine management computer.

Now mine is broken and costs me €1500,- to replace.
