    Airbag light flashing, pre-tensioner??

    The pretensioner is completely integrated into the reel part at the bottom of the door pillar. If it comess back then I'll probably replace the pre-tensioner

    Airbag light flashing, pre-tensioner??

    Looks to have been a bad connection on the pre-tensioner. It's located at the bottom of the seatbelt. Pulling the seatbelt or hitting the cover would make the light come on after clearing the fault. Pressed the connector and wires in togther and doesn't happen now.

    EPS Power steering column, what ACTUALLY goes wrong?

    And you can drive a car without a clue how any of it works under the bonnet, and some of us do. Same with motors it seems.

    EPS Power steering column, what ACTUALLY goes wrong?

    ok, the basics of angular power, speed and torque is beyond your grasp. Your link is what you get if non-electrical engineers make up a spec, lots of meaningless junk like hall effect and 170kV

    The gearbox gives it effectively about 1200Nm on the steering wheel.

    EPS Power steering column, what ACTUALLY goes wrong?

    That's only about 28lbft, and with the larger diameter steering wheel then that looks easily beatable in a man vs motor fight

    Airbag light flashing, pre-tensioner??

    I had the airbag light flashing yesterday. Got home to read the codes from the ABS module and it says "RH pre-tentioner" I presume this is at the seatbelt buckle, they dont liike like they have pre-tensioners, more like a solid metal bar holding the catch. Do they K12s have pre-tensioners? if...

    K12 standard bluetooth radio - can it do bluetooth music also?

    No bluetooth music, but it is plug and play with the early satnav units from juke/qq/etc. That has everything

    Screen wash Pump fuse

    Do you have a haynes manual, that will probably tell you. The pump only cost about £3 for the K12, cant imaging the K13 is that different.

    K12 Handbrake stopping power

    You should never put on the handbrake while moving unless it's an emergency. Not normal, probably just needs cleaned and adjusted, made a huge difference to ours.

    No power at all

    The voltage is 6 volts, way too low. Can you jump start it and check the voltage? It could be the alternator or battery, or connections in between. You need to figure out which part had the problem. If it is the alternator and the battery is new enough then it may recover.

    Windscreen single wash/ wipe not working , help appreciated

    Not sure they should move, pretty sure ours doesn't move. Many cars dont have it automatic since wiping with no screenwash is often worse then doing nothing.

    Air Con Issues

    It should hold the gas for a few years if not used. Could be the pressure switch that checks there is gas, or a fuse. Not sure a fault reader will be able to identify that, would need to check.
