Hi all! We have been experiencing an issue on site where threads have been missing the latest postings. The platform host Vanilla are working on this issue. A workaround that has been used by some is to navigate back from 1 to 10+ pages to re-sync the thread and this will then show the latest posts. Thanks, Mike.

    Hi, I've a 06 Zafira B , 1.6 petrol, no dash lights coming on at all, no ignition, no locking, boot locked closed. Radio powers on funnily enough but screen doesn't come on either.
    Tried a second fuse box as its a common fault but no joy.
    Any other ideas ?

    Battery is fine, :D , no dash lights at all, even dim ones and no ignition. Taking to local lad with computer tomorrow, see if anything shows up.

    Still could be a dead battery. If you have a multi meter check the battery. Anything near 10v is a completely knackered battery.

    Battery was checked first, it's perfect, fully charged.
    The issue is an electrical fault. No lights either, local guy has a computer, doesn't charge me to plug it in :-) , he said he might know.

    Hi, still no joy with this. Have changed both fuseboxes as advised and all I have is radio and interior lights.

    Could it be a wire off a bus connector? Obviously main positive and negative are ok for lights and radio

    Disconnect the ABS unit and see will it start. Most likely fault given your symptoms.

    He was in Dockland business park as of earlier in the year anyway. Think I have his number if you want me to PM it to you.
