      Having been done up like I kipper recently with a used car purchase I decided to give car vertical a go with the replacement.
      It's done the job brilliantly and I'm now happily driving round in a problem free ford focus.
      The 10% discount came in handy as well.

    16:05 shows rear doors open on the dash lcd display? Could be a programming issue as it's only a 2 door.

    Hi Rob
    I have an EOS. The drivers side air bag fault light, is a known common fault.
    It will be the yellow connector under the drivers seat, not the yellow connector from the floor well to the seat. It just needs disconnecting, cleaning with electrical contact cleaner, then reconnecting. Clear the fault and it should be fine.
    BTW, the official VW repair to this fault is to cut the yellow connector out, and solder the wires together, thus removing the connector completely. I've not done that on mine. You will find that it will probably fail again within a year or so, and will need cleaning again.

    I had a 2007 EOS about 6 years ago Roof issues are usually the sensors as the roof comes down and won’t go back into boot. The main culprit is usually the sensor behind the driver and passenger seats near the rear passenger windows. Might need a clean or slight reposition Great little cars good fun

    For anyone trying to do a caliper job like this, common on these model of cars, a new caliper off Ebay for it are only £25-35, you can rebuild them for £5-10.
    Because the piston rotates the ram wont work very well on it. Best way to get the pistols free if seized is to buy a wind back tool that has a hex head on the handle side and use an impact wrench on it, as it is rotating and compressing at the same time. Also clamp off the brake line and open the bleed nipple before you do it to let any internal pressure out, that may have built up from galvanic corrosion, as the caliper casting is Aluminium and the pistol and internals are Steel. For anyone that may need some help with the same issue. Also a lack of brake fluid changes have an effect.

    Car has lost some module coding due to the flat battery (hence the MFD shows a 4 door car, not a 2 door). This is very common on the EOS and some other VWs of the same era. VCDS / VagCom can sometimes resolve this by changing the coding of the related modules but if the recoding doesn't take then often the dealer has to sort. You'll need to make sure the previous 'work' did not involve changing modules or tinkering with the coding to rule out a failed repair attempt.

    On Mk5 Golfs the airbag light with a crash sensor code is often due to a dodgy connector underneath the front seats. You just have to take the connector out and solder the wires so you get a lower resistance in the circuit. Takes twenty minutes (mostly getting the seat out).

  • @2000globetrotter
    @2000globetrotter 2 ปีที่แล้ว +10

    When the battery has gone flat, it's very common to get the dashboard light up like a Christmas tree. The usual fix is to clear the faults, charge the battery and restart the car. Usually puts all or most of the lights out.

    Funnily enough a mate is having issues with his EOS windows too. Had a motor which made no odds, now told he needs a full regulator. He's been told windows are a common weak spot on the EOS. We're just enjoying taking the mickey as we all told him to steer clear of it as it was a 2006 with some sketchy history, but his mrs was keen! I'll have to tell him about the control unit, might save him some messing about - they're a struggle to find online though

    Good video guys! if you don’t mind me saying I actually cringe when you put a jump pack On a long-term dead battery car! although the battery is dead it is also in a sulphated state and will have sulphate crystals shorting out the +& - plates when you apply the jump pack The short circuits in the battery can get transmitted into the car hence your immobiliser fault I have also seen sulphated batteries cause alternator failure, comfort control modules to pack up and complete mileage Erasure! (Blank screen) What I do is carry an 063 Fiesta/polo battery which is small easy to transport and will start most cars along with the jump pack if you need to, i’ve seen a lot of vehicles suffered damage because of people jumpstarting them.
    The door control module and airbag faults will be probably down to breaks in the wiring between the door pillar and door.
    It’s a common fault and the door control module will probably not be faulty

  • @chrisbartram3034
    @chrisbartram3034 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    Guys, it might be worth checking Sciroccos for the window module, Eos and Scirocco share some parts and Sciroccos also do the window drop thing when opening the door. Also, as someone else has said you almost certainly have incorrect coding in a module somewhere as the instrument panel shows 4 doors. I'd suggest you get VCDS on it.

Once u fix that the roof will work

    I changed one of those window motors on my touran, the new used one came with a new module. Strangely enough the window went the wrong way on the switch. So i took the module off my old motor and used that instead. I think the new one was from a golf. It had the same part number as mine though. Anyway consequently I have one that works sat in a box. You can have it if you like, i have no use for it. I did think about swapping the motor pins around but couldn’t be bothered. Let me know.

  • @tonywalters5396
    @tonywalters5396 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    Guys, you air bag light is because the door module is out. That module controls many things so unless you get an exact replica, you may need to code things like door handle and puddle lights. The roof and windows is likely the convenience unit which I think is under the passenger chair. They are again common issues on VW Audi cars and the A3, A4 and A5 cabs suffer the same issues. Battery is key is VWs. Low charge sends you on a wild goose chase.

    Looks as though that had the flat battery problem, affecting everything for a while after a battery recovery. At least the project is progressing in the right direction, even if it is still a work-in-progress case. If a few bits can solve all the issues without breaking the bank, it looks like you have a potential winner for a flip sale. Keep them coming and keep watching your friendly breaker, you might require some tactical spares support. It is certainly not worth firing the new spare parts canon at it at the moment.

    They are very similar to the Ford Focus CC. I'm Admin on the Facebook Focus CC Owners group and we have the same issues with the modules. You may find that the relay has gone in the control module. You can replace them if you are competent with soldering and can source the part. I'll be interested to see what problems you find with it. Also might be worth checking the plug connectors under the front seats for the airbag light and just make sure they are seated correctly as this can cause a light on the dash. Great video guys.

    I once had an EOS as a company car. The first battery died and I was given an Exide replacement which was rubbish. Warning lights everywhere. Open a door and the window went down an inch. Then it would not go up again. Open the door again and it went down another inch. Insisted on a proper new battery and after an hour or so of a light show everything sorted itself out. Very weird electrics.

    All of that generation volkswagen/audi/seat/skoda all seem to have an issue with rear calipers seizing. My Seat ALtea and Touran all had the same issue.

    Hey guys when you strip the rear window panels of to get to the motors so you see if they are working or you need the codes of the Motors can you film i. I have one myself and both rear window motors have gone and I have to change them out but being a 2007 model it can be one of two different types. It would be nice to see how you get on keep up the great videos

    Another nice looking car Rob, should be a quick fix for you guys but £100 for that window part seems a bit steep.

    Summer's coming - love the way you always look on the bright side! Why does the instrument panel show the rear offside door open on a 3 door car? What mileage has it done? Not sure how popular/well known hence valuable EOS's are but it should sell to an Instagram subscriber no problem. Steering wheel chrome VW logo looks worn - worth getting the one off the Kent Auto car? I appreciate you want to look at it later but if it is anything to do with the rear side window mechanism it might be worth getting the Kent Auto one before anyone else does..

    Have you checked its dry in the boot? The roof pump is usually under water.

    Looks to be a nice little motor. Always see loads of random faults when a battery is flat. Good idea to fully charge the battery and not go chasing faults and wasting your time.
    Don't suppose you do commission jobs? Basically, I have a budget, would you be up for finding and fixing a specific car. 99.99% sure what the answer would be. Worth a shot though...😉

    Burnt my omelette pan whilst bingeing on my favourite car show. Dedicated or what! Love the improvised solutions to challenging repairs. Great blokey banter as usual. Superb stuff.

    Hi Chris and Rob, answer this please, every garage in the UK has a range rover that never gets worked on and remains in the garage as a future project, so, when are you going to break the mold and get yours done? Yes I wanna see the video of it being finished off.. Cheers guys love your channel 🍻👍🍺
