My Lanos ... at the dealer for more than a week

Post by TheGreatAndPowerfulOz »

The air bag light in my Lanos came on, luckily while it is still under warranty.
I dropped the car off earlier this week, and they said the air bag module needs to be replaced, which they said will take about a week to arrive.

While it was there, they replaced the cam timing sensor which is under the recall.

Before I took the car, I took out the satellite radio and the subwoofer.
I didn't want those to disappear while the car is sitting on their lot.

So, now I am down to 1 Daewoo to drive! :shock: LOL

As soon as I get the Lanos back, I am taking the Leganza in so they can fix the brake lights which don't work.

I checked the fuses and the switch, which are good, so there is something else that is the problem.
Temporarily, I have a hand operated switch inside the car that is on a wire that goes from the battery (which is fused) and then back to the brake lights in the trunk.
All the brake lights work when I use the hand switch, so I can still drive legally and it looks like all my lights are working! :)
Too bad the Leganza isn't under warranty any more.

for the leganza it may have worn a wire in your indicators, as the brake light wire runs up through the indicator wand, and the constant indicating shears through it. Happened at about 75,000km to me

Why don't you just wire it yourself??

The brake switch is easy enough to get at and you've allready hooked into the rear lights... instead of a hand operated switch just pop your head under there and attach it to the brake switch.

Because half of January, all of Feb and part of March, I've not been able to do anything like getting under the dash to the brake light switch since I hurt my back. Now that everything is healing, I may try to work on it some time soon.
