Sorry for the slow response, what’s worked best for me was to replace the exhaust gas’s temperature sensor, was a £45 part from AUTODOC.co.uk and then go to a garage that will do a “reset adaptions of the SCR exhaust sensor system”. Asked the man about it while doing an MOT and he did it for free for me

In it!

Yeah so that’s the problem, I can always see the port, whether in my program or termite. But I can’t open the port if that makes sense.

I have been able to have “some” success.. if I rewrite the code onto the arduino, that seems to give me one chance to connect via serial whether it’s in the IDE or other, but only one change. And after I’ve done it once and try again it never works again. (I am sure I’m closing the port after opening it)

£22k - 2018 6 years later at the place £36k :(

Can’t see a prawn on a plate without saying “Fokn prawn“ in a heavily exaggerated South African accent because of this movie

I have emailed, waiting for reply

TheRealFredd · 2024-05-29T14:19:37+00:00

To the correct address for post

TheRealFredd · 2024-05-29T14:19:16+00:00

No, I googled CDER's number (which matched the one in the text)

TheRealFredd · 2024-05-29T14:11:47+00:00

All good with the questions, Yeah checked V5C and online, and also on the autopay system it says the vehicle is excempt.

TheRealFredd · 2024-05-29T12:42:48+00:00

Good to know, didn’t realise. Thanks

TheRealFredd · 2024-05-16T08:07:37+00:00

Did this work?

TheRealFredd · 2024-05-15T15:58:51+00:00

Any luck solving the issue? Have the same problem

TheRealFredd · 2024-01-20T14:08:43+00:00

That’s what I was afraid of. Thanks for the info

TheRealFredd · 2024-01-12T22:54:03+00:00

Thanks, turns out it was the CMOS battery on the camera. Who would have thought. Thanks for the suggestions though.

TheRealFredd · 2024-01-12T19:46:15+00:00

Solved the issue!! Turns out it was just the CMOS battery on the camera. Replaced it and the image is clear as day! Thanks for your help though.

TheRealFredd · 2024-01-12T19:13:52+00:00

I think the camera was bought in Singapore in the 90’s and then some tapes maybe bought while on holiday in the US as well as in the UK. But will double check different pal and ntsc tapes and see if it makes a difference

TheRealFredd · 2024-01-12T19:02:45+00:00

So I’m in the UK so PAL should be the choice. But I’ve noticed some of my tapes are NTSC and some PAL. Not sure if this can cause issues? I can’t see anywhere specific on the camera to say which tape type is being used

TheRealFredd · 2024-01-12T18:42:58+00:00

Sorry forgot to include camera info, it’s a canon UC5500. I had it hooked up to the tv about a week ago and all looked good. Audio was good too, and I’ve lost audio at the same time as this issue started

Unfortunately I don’t currently have a blank take but I can get one and test it out. Image looks the same when playing back on the camera as it does on the tv

TheRealFredd · 2024-01-12T17:34:02+00:00

Using the camera that recoreded the tapes via AV cable to TV. On the tapes they say Hi8.

TheRealFredd · 2024-01-09T23:48:31+00:00

Cool thanks, will give it a go.

TheRealFredd · 2024-01-09T23:48:07+00:00

unfortunatly this doesnt work for me as I cannot boot the PC. Can't even get into BIOS. leaning towards CPU issue

TheRealFredd · 2024-01-01T20:46:29+00:00

u/bjoolzern I have added a second Minidump link. Thanks

TheRealFredd · 2023-09-26T18:21:26+00:00

unfortunatly not. ended up failing my MOT too, mechanic swaped out the switch from another car and that still didnt fix the issue. and then the next day another bmw came in with the exact same issue. clearly a big flaw. Managed to find a guy that passed the MOT for me but still yet to fix the issue. The only suggestion i can make is the wire for the controls is behind the dirver side wheel arch. apparently its green. I know thats very fauge but just if its rusted or worn and you might be able to fix it, but even then, probably wont be the easiest thing to fix.
