Fluence Flixed!

Oh, what a day!

This afternoon I took my Fluence for an MOT. I was surprised to hear that it failed due to rear fog lights. I never use the damn things. However, indeed, they don't seem to work. There is a 2nd control on the indicator stalk which you flick one way for front fogs, (they work) and the other way for rear fogs.

I thought it must be a fuse, so consulted the manual. They do not mention one for fog lights, but the fuse box contains many more fuses than are shown in the book. Therefore I started pulling them out one by one to try to find a duff one.

They all seem okay. However, my car now has loads of error messages and won't move. What have I done?

I have the 12v battery off overnight, and hope it may forget this by tomorrow. Failing that will try the scan tool.

Any thoughts?

G.a.r.y. where did you buy the Fluence from (area)? What colour is it? I had seen one for sale (and visited it) in august this year near Luton. But had a flight the same day and could not get it home then. Hope it was you, it was in mint condition.

I think I read somewhere that they disable charging if you don't pay up, didn't I?
Not on this car. It's too old. The ZE connected services aren't working since 2015.

For anyone wanting CHAdeMO on their Fluence or Kangoo ZE let me know.

Sure. This is a portable version. 2nd revision will come mounted in the OEM charger. You want to mount it yourself or wanna come by?

The socket is diy, I'd recommend getting an OEM one.

Where are you located Toomba? How much for each option?
The job can be done at my friend's garage in MK, at my home in St Albans or I can drive to your place.

700 for the diy and 1050 for the full install.
