PAH Donating Members 361 Member For: 15y 1m 28d Gender: Male Posted 25/09/19 10:32 PM Share Posted 25/09/19 10:32 PM Guys, As I've been poking around for the cause of Battery Fail Warning and a stalling issue I found this Youtube: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=S7QFEVWShvc It shows how the wires feeding to the indicator stalk are sheered off inside the steering column. The car is a BF. The video might help members with a blank dashboard. I might take the steering column cover off my FG just to double check that all is OK. If this problem has afflicted my car, I'm not sure that it'd cause a Battery Fail error but it's worth a check. Any thoughts? PAH Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
k31th less WHY; more WOT Site Developer 28,211 Member For: 15y 11m 8d Gender: Male Location: Melbourne Posted 26/09/19 01:40 AM Share Posted 26/09/19 01:40 AM it's worth checking because it's easy enough to check, but I haven't heard of that issue being too common in any of the falcons...

The wiring is to short and having it in high beam plus indicating puts some stress on the wires. Plus the wire must be the cheapest sh*t they could get out of China. It's so brittle, and just crumbles under your hands if you try and solder it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
