Was driving my 2011 G6ET with trailer out of town couple of days ago and then randomly after 2+ hours driving (at night) the tail lights went out so pulled over turned it off and found the blown fuse and replaced to found the lights where back on so all seems fine so I went to start the car again to find the it wont turn over at all then faults had started coming up as - comms fault/airbag/seat belt and or pre tensioner faults.

Anyone had this happen or know of something similar if so what was the cause/solution.

Cheers

I tow a caravan 1600kg and have never had an issue.

Disconnect the battery for awhile the reconnect work with most things.

Check what is draining the battery. Could be short in the trailer wiring.

How old is the battery?

The last issue you had with the warnings and errors is probably due to the battery being flat.

Ive only had the car for about 4 months so I would have to assume the battery is as at least a couple of years old.

Th car is at the ford dealership now so hopefully they can sort it out without to many dramas.

Well there is your first mistake.. Never go to a fraud dealership for fault fixing unless you wanna spend the big bucks

$$$$$$$$$$$

A laptop or Android phone running FORScan with a $19 eBAY OBD2 dongle would be doing the same thing that you will be likely paying 100% more for at Fraud.

Ive done many diagnosis all for the price of around $25

Did you end up finding the problem??

Same that $20 or so has paid for itself so many times over it ain't funny.

Deano was last online on the 29th of September. I reckon he got charged heaps by Fraud to say that the battery is flat.

Hope this was not the case. Any possibility of getting an update please Deano
