Car didn't like being parked inside overnight something is hanging the data bus fans on when running and no litres per hundred on the dash and oil light on continuous. I only vacuumed and cleaned it and did the plugs .unplugged and still no difference wonder if it's the bcm Windows etc working I do have vats turned off so hard to tell if it's talking to the ecu will plug in when I get home if the bus isn't totally hungup

Ok not abs not the dash unplugged both still the same can't even flash codes engine light just stays on solid guess part of the bcm is dead plugged in my factory ecu with vats still starts so it can get data to the ecu so the aldl wire must be good from ecu to bcm only thing left to unplug is the airbag module I think guess I'll pull the centre console apart and unplug it to see stupid bloody car lol

We have a winner lol sand drinks and wet dog damage lol looks like the plugs corroded and covered in spilt drinks .I unplugged it and still the same then I unplugged the other wiring plug further up the tunnel and it's bought the dash to life now to find how the harness all routes cause it's looking like a full replacement of the harness

Yeah it's looking like a full harness swap I reckon.have a vx ls1 wreck I can get it from hopefully just doesn't look to simple to get the harness out and don't think soldering a new plug on is best lol

Get some electroclean (or similar product) and give it a spray. You may find it will be enough and save you the cost of a harness.

I think the corrosion is bridging wires as unplugging it still hung the data bus it only came good when I isolated the whole harness on the other plug
