I had the audio installer not plug mine in way back. Found out when it went in for a tune.

Yeah got that but only ever needed to get in there to swap the surround...

if its 4 pin square type plug its prob the 02 sensor may be cause of the heater issue

Bang on!

Me and my memory lol

Should be ok then. If it's not plugged in properly you won't be able to switch traction control off.

Nah that's plugged in, it's the 02 sensor that's unplugged. Not that it's not plugged in properly, it's simply not plugged in...

The traction control switch works as in when I hit it and the cars not complaining it goes off and on, but it's spitting a dummy all the time and giving a warning on the screen about traction control. The P0030 doesn't trigger low power but just constantly throws the 'check engine' on the screen and the code reader shows me the P0030.

I think once I plug the 02 Sensor back in things will change for the better...

In that case the traction control would normally sort itself out after a few mins of driving. Seems a bit coincidental that it's having TC error that would be related to the common problems like wheel sensor harness. Normally got to try and remember to switch it off when spinning the rears without the fronts going as well. Happened to me when chasing a vibration, the blokes looking at it didn't turn it off. Threw a hissy for about 5 mins then it corrected itself.

I thought you had it running on stands?

Did you not see this video...

I thought at one point you had it running on stands doing tests? That was what I was basing my reasons for traction control error. I didn't realise you only did road testing.

Once I'd got the TM oil in I did run it on stands in reverse and drive to try and mix the oil round the TM before I got it warm enough to check at the drain plug. About a litre came out before it dripped but yeah was out on the road straight after...
