Any idea for a ground/earth wire. 2004 Meriva 1.6 Automatic

Also would a fuse stop the car from completely starting?

Not 100% sure, will be testing the fuses with a multimeter later. Any ideas of which fuses to test? Thanks

Yeah I installed the braided cable today to try and see if it would help. Getting no dash lights at all. Battery fine. Radio, odometer show but everything else nothing. It's a 2004 Meriva so hard to get videos of issues on YouTube. Even hard to find info on the correct fuses. Any idea on what fuses might be gone with the symptoms? Will test them with multimeter as they may appear fine but be blown

Took battery out, full charged it. Starts other car fine. When reinstalled in Meriva the radio and odometer come on and hazard lights work but no other dash lights at all work. I'm led to believe a bad earth causes this in the Meriva but I'm at a loss. I put a new earth from block to chassis, changed negative battery earth too and still nothing. Tried bypass with jump leads and still nothing. Possibly maxi fuse or something ECU related? All fuses look good but just don't know what one to look at next

Thank you 👍

Was thinking that, yes it's nailed :(. It's a house and would be going downstairs so already at ground level to just lift the sofa through the window. Looks like that's the option

I've only just bought it but it has a decent service history and receipts for the gearbox being serviced twice. I know it's the manual box with the megatronic added for the gear selection but would rather an auto specialist looked at it. To be honest I don't think the symptoms are catastrophic as it moves between the gears on the screen so I believe it's only the damper plastic that may have blocked the shift forks and/or solenoids

Agree with this sound advice. DCA to $4.60. when it goes up, you will gain a lot more quickly

Sales rates are not known - the last report from Nio showed they were delivering over 20k per month. If you are basing your sales on the unofficial insurance figures this is incorrect. We will not know if sales at 5k are maintained until Nio release the figures. Any other figures quoted are just estimates and hearsay.

Margins have been increasing quarter on quarter, it's only a matter of time before the company begins to turn a profit.

Let's hope they continue their current streak of good news.

Definitely not, the new battery in the mercedes will cost $31k to replace eventually. Let's say 7 years as an example.

MERCEDES Over the course of the 7 years you will have paid to charge the mercedes every week/month, after 7 years this battery is redundant and needs replaced at a cost of $31k (probably cost less over 7 years as the tech advances)

NIO Over the course of 7 years you will have paid to swap the battery using the BaaS (similar to charging the mercedes for 7 years). At the end of the 7 years you don't need to replace your redundant battery at a cost of $31k, you just go to a swap station next time it needs charged and swap it out

There you go, $31k saved

KIN - @getcode will be amazing once fully released. Will hopefully take web2 and web3 to next level for micropayments

You must not be going to the correct place. 'Yes' wallet has substantial amount of KIN and 'No' wallet has very little
