Finallyxr6turbo New Member 13 Member For: 11y 1m 14d Posted 09/11/15 11:34 PM Author Share Posted 09/11/15 11:34 PM No click or nothing. Dash lights come up and then the faults will come up and it will beep at all. Yeah the car runs perfect once it's startee Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/91357-please-help/#findComment-1569139 Share on other sites More sharing options...
