Any Alfa Romeo experts on here ?

[Ex Footy Legs]

I have an issue with Bluetooth connection after a battery change(!) (believe it ir not!) and wondered if any of you have Alfa Romeo car knowledge ?

My electric windows used to operate by themselves every now again when I had an Alfa. Its part of the charm.

emove the negative cable from your battery for 10 seconds then reconnect it. It's a common fault on alpha's I believe.

It's the equivelant of rebooting your laptop. There is probably a way to reboot the ecu and all other electric systems. Usually by quickly pressing the clutch pedal 10 times.

indeed, I had to do my windows up and down 3 times and press some other button to reset them. There are lots a weird hacks for resetting over complicated car electronics. Was never an issue on my old Chevette.

Yup, buy the time you have figured out how to do a reset you may as well just open the bonnet. I think they are complex to stop you inadvertently resetting the ecu whilst driving.

I am sure your chevette was much simpler. Things like brake fade, cables snapping, water getting in the distributor cap, that kinda thing.

Not knocking chevette, I had a red one and they looked quite cool. But all those problems I mentioned I saw.

ICE cars are rubbish aren't they, all of them have problems with bluetooth.

I see what you did there, very good.
