Hi everybody - I have never experienced anything like it & cant believe the trouble I have had. I am trying to rectify the faults because the dealer (one with a number of outlets across the country) is incapable & as a trained engineer & someone who runs a design & development company, I find myself better qualified. To be fair the dealer has rectified some faults & has fitted a screen as an apology but let me give you a flavour of the faults - Microwave fitted too low so that the door was below the bottom edge of the surrounding frame & would not open. Water in most of the rear lights - the dealer drained them but did not fix the leak on each so they just filled up again & they declined to change the reflector in the lwr bumper corner moulding because it was 'too difficult'. It took me two hours but I did it in the end. And then there was the fridge that would not open on hot days - the side was warped & collided with the frame - nobody believed me but finally I was supplied a new door - NO display, laminate front, mouldings etc - just a bare door so I had to swap everything from the old door. Worthwhile though as it solved the problem. I have nearly 40 examples of this type of issue.
By the way, I filled in the dealer quality of service questionnaire & had a letter from their management informing me of an investigation into the situation. Despite talking to the dealer, I never heard from them again.
Back to the camera - I tried ringing Swift twice yesterday (operators busy both times) & my E-mail of last week has not attracted a response. Any more help on the location would be welcomed.
Hi Stonkn
I see your not getting far with this.
I said in my last post to you that the control box is situated within the dash,i still think it is.
If you call me i will talk you through on how to find it as it is fittied in between two panels.
HI THERE WELL IVE A KONTIKI 2007 MODEL MY DVD AND CAMERA CONTROL BOXES ARE ABOVE THE FRIDGE IN A CUPBOARD I CANT UNDERSTAND Y YOU ARE HAVING ALL THESE PROBLEMS SEND ME YOUR NUMBER AND I WILL HELP YOU THREW THEM MIKE
Stonkn
We have just looked at one of our Bolero`s in stock (2007 model) and like i say its situated to the passenger side of the dash board, you have a flap on the top of the dash and under that their is a pocket which is held in by torque screws.
If you remove the pocket you will see a silver controll box with jack plugs either side of it.
well you may have encountered issues Stonkyn but look at the calibre of help you are receiving here !!
You have a dealer, an electrical services company and the manufacturer helping you
Many thanks to Glenn for his advise over the phone. However, I took the passenger upper stowage box out again & the control box is not there. I even took the glove box & frame out & came from underneath & there is nothing. I gave up & ran in two new wires to the back of the vehicle !!
Whilst I was working on this I noticed the fact that 2 wires go into the side (habitation) door (in a protective sleeve). Since there is nothing electrical on the door, what do these do? Please don’t tell me that the lock is linked to the cab & triggers with the Fiat fob. I said when I bought the vehicle what a pain it was to manually unlock the side door always & the dealer just said that side doors have manual locks.
