 I know it's not considered "kind" to say no these days, but no. Just no, ok? And if it's not ok, still no.

Possibly related to a software issue, may have become corrupt at some point.

What happens when the headlights and rear lights are unplugged (all at the same time)

Failing that, it sounds like a wiring issue someplace...

Ok, had the lights out front and rear, still getting the problem. Should mention that Autologic is recording a comms error on the transmission ECU (per a visit to my local indy a few weeks back to correct a little faux pas when they replaced my front lower wishbones Whistle ). I've replaced the A-pillar trim previously due to loose fit and had the battery out a couple of weeks of weeks back to check all the ECU plugs and everything is like new in there.

I guess next step is to check the plugs on the selector and park brake interlock, then sit with a pint in my hand scratching my head Laughing

Did you ever get to the bottom of this issue Alan?

Mine is giving Transmission Fault as soon as D is selected. Its ok in R & N & P but once D is selected, it faults and won't allow sport or command shift.

Turning on the sidelights makes it all OK.

Wendy has reported that she occasionally can't get the key out recently, although I can't repeat this.

Even with the engine off, just the ignition on, just moving the gear lever, as soon as D is reached, I get the error.

Drives perfectly normally, I can select low/hi and terrain response is functioning. All brake lights working.

Any ideas?

Bloomin' thing must have sussed out I'm selling her Laughing

I eventually got to the bottom of this issue! (though not on your car Whistle )

It is a corroded splice joint in the N/S/F footwell. Seen this issue twice in 2 weeks, and both cars had the same fault in the same place Thumbs Up

I want to say its a purple/yellow wire Confused

Cheers Mikey, can you be a bit more accurate as to the exact location of this splice?

Under the plastic sill trims, need to remove both of them. Was quite far forward, and wrapped in blue insulating tape
