    Symphony III locked in safe mode.

    Been told i can leave it on for an hour and it resets. I'll try that before the battery. If i unplug the unit completely that not the same as disconnecting the bat? Cos that doesnt fix it anyway

    Glove box bulb not working. And yes i have tried changing the bulb.

    No the horse was out in the field :P Just drilled 2 holes in the very end of the snapped part, which is attached to the damper, at each side, then two where it should be attached. looped the paperclips through and twisted them. Bit fiddly. Didnt think superglue alone would hold up but im...

    Glove box bulb not working. And yes i have tried changing the bulb.

    Just had a quick look there and I can see the problem. I Was aware my damper was broke in some way b the actual damper itself is fine just the but that attaches it to the gb has snapped.

    Adjusting Xenon Headlights

    That's defo how mine adjusted. Maybe they are not getting a bite or something but I'm sure they didn't really feel like they were moving much when I did it hence why I said do it infront of a wall. it took quite a lot of turning.
