Hello All,
Ok i suspect this is the wrong place to post this I am hoping with all the cluster detail you have all been playing with there might be a good thought process here or even someone who has experienced the issue.
I have a 2011 S2 SS manual wagon. Currently I have two issues which I believe are related. First is that I have my dash going black occasionally and as if it is rebooting while driving. I cannot reproduce the problem all the time and it never happens when the dash is on the passenger seat (yes I have removed the dash to diagnose with extended harnesses (headache).
SO i have checked all wiring and monitored all voltage things look stable. I believe this cluster to be the original (however, I am not sure how to verify this). Car has 97,000 ish klms and looks new, so i am not suggesting foul play. after checking everything I am at wits end as to why this is occuring.
The second issue is that I get a check oil light flash up occasionally as well. This can be a single beep with a flash, or two beep and proper oil display. I have replaced the filter and the oil pressure sender and still get the problem. I have made sure all wiring is seated on the sensor and that I am getting signal from the unit. Sender unit was only changed because it was suspected that it was the issue. Oil pressure has been checked and is all good, not a data at all. If I drive at 110kmh in 6th it chimes every 3ish klms randomly, if in 5th no chimes until decel. I can assure that there is oil pressure and the car is not starving for oil. Gauge tells me it is all fine. Only reason I have replaced the oil filter as I have had issues with the racecar and a failed oil filter before.
I know my wife did flatten the battery a month ago and I went through the process of charging and cycling the battery at home once I got the car there. I really dont like just replacing parts but I am starting to get to the stage I might have too. I really dont want to go down the line of replacing the dash either as I am not tooled up yet to do a dash replacement nor do I think this will be an easy conversion. This SS is a once off, and has been verified by Holden themselves. (was a demonstrator and has a lot of the Calais options installed (including the cream interior of the tradition black).
This is my baby after my last one was stolen so I am very much wanting to try and resolve this issue.
Thanks in advance.
Cheers
