Hi all,
My 3200GT (automatic) got some problems, would appreciate if any of you may give me some hints to see what's wrong...
At first, what I observed was the outside temperature showing 3 dashes with a freeze logo on its left on the car's dashboard. When the problem first came up, the...
Miracle happened!
While I was waiting my indy to order the rheostat from the local dealer ('cos the cost is almost the same if I am going to order from Eurospares after adding the shipping cost), I used my car with the dashboard light off all the time... A few days before, I sent my car to my...
My indy told me that, he believes that sudden drop in the voltage that he and I measured was because of the start of the A/C fan, and the drop of the voltage doesn't not drop down too far and would be get back to normal immediately, so, he believes that is not the reason causing the light...
The second last reply from natargent is pretty close to what I am facing.... Ummm.... but believe that he doesn't got any solution as well.... Maybe it will still be a myth of 3200.... :P
Thank you very much! Well.. I noted that the interior lights (including the Air Con console backlights, and the light at the boot, I noticed the bright and dim of the light at the boot while I was measuring the voltage at the battery....) go bright and dim at the same time as the dashboard...
Sent the car to the indy to check. He also suspected that is the alternator or the regulator inside the alternator caused problem. He had experience with a Ferrari had the similar problem and solved by just changing the regulator, not the whole alternator, by a specialist in car alternator...
Managed to do some test on the car... well... noticed that the room light will dim together when the dashboard light dims. Used multitester to check the voltage at the battery connector while the engine was running, noticed that sometimes the voltage was not so stable... most of the time was...
Just return from my trip....
It is the instrument illumination, no warning light pops up so far.... Let me check it out when I have to getting to the car.... Thanks!
Thanks all!
My car has Xenon headlight... although I was told by my mechanic that it is an aftermarket one... so, if Xenon light won't dim due to the voltage fluctuation, it may not be a good indication.
I had a brief check on the battery connector, they should be tight.... well.... maybe a...
Hi,
Noticed some problem with my 3200 in these few days, appreciate anybody could give out his view on what I should look at.
In recent days, I noticed that after a few minutes started and then turn on the light, the light on the dashboard sometimes got dimmed and not stable, but after...
Just curious, would and had anyone enhance the negative connection to the battery on 3200?
The reason I ask is because, recently, I notice my car's dashboard lights dim a bit and get back to normal quickly for a few times during the first few minutes when I started the car; then I read some...
Would that be the similar experience as what I had last year? --> http://www.sportsmaserati.com/showthread.php/9749-3200-Starting-problem?highlight=start+marginally
Not exactly the same, but you can take a look... I took the video of how I started my car at that moment as well... Hope it helps!
Hope that it will work well in your car!
You're right, the good thing about car in China is that, I think nobody cares on how you modify your car.... you can nearly do anything on your car without bothered by the authority like here in Hong Kong.... you know, in Hong Kong (I think the same as...
