Suggestion

AFAIK, it should not need any reset but I guess it doesn't hurt to disconnect and reconnect the battery again and see if that fixes it.

Suggestion · Original poster

I am thinking I turned something off or it requies a reset after being parked for the winter and the battery being disconnected.

These are separate views of the same evidence. Frequency alone does not establish a fix, and these counts must not be added together.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

3 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

I am having difficulty getting into the OBC. I can only move up and down the 4 top level indications, but not enter any of them to deeper settings. I have got into the lower levels in the past. I am thinking I turned something off or it requies a reset after being parked for the winter and the battery being disconnected. I did the radio reset, so other functions work. Thx for any help in advance, Mario 2001 C4

POST 2Original post

AFAIK, it should not need any reset but I guess it doesn't hurt to disconnect and reconnect the battery again and see if that fixes it. If not, it sounds like the stalk on the combination switch is not working. So basically the symptom is the stalk works in the up/down directions but not the fore/aft directions?

POST 3 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

That's my conclusion... The stalk is not working properly. Unless, there a relationship for this problem to activating a new key?

This is a source reference. Confirm exact model applicability in the original material.
