    i suspected that might be the problem, but i figured you already checked something that simple.

    well here is the solution, i pressed parking for 1 min then i pressed parking button and power button same time for 10 sec, then under wheels steering there is reset button i pressed and wait 15 sec, then i unplug battery fuse which is back of the car and plug it back after 10 sec, after that i start my car and it works:) hope you understand, if any question reply here i try my best to explain :)

    Could have saved himself all that bother if he just disconnected the 12 V battery in the first place.

    But actually, if that is all he did, he hasn't fixed anything. Just erased the codes. "They'll be back"

    you're saying the reset under the steering wheel isn't an integral part of the procedure?(n)

    Hmm... weird.... Usually you must also spin around three times and clap your hands twice. :)

    I'm kidding, I'm kidding.

    Glad it worked out for you and thank for replying OP

    Realistically the codes could have been inadvertently been set while installing the 12v.

    So simply clearing them after the install was completed would have been all that was needed.


    Time will tell.
