Hi I,ve Purchased 98 SWB Maverick 2.7 TD

GHDirect · 18-04-2017, 10:20

Hi all.
Needed an old school technology vehicle to take dog out and occasionally pull large 2 ton trailer. Found a low mileage 1998 SWB Maverick 2.7 TD long MoT fairly rust free which fitted the bill. My (GSD long coat) loves it and so far what bits it required (oil change, discs pads and shockers) have been acceptable and easily fitted. I have some issues with central locking and obtaining the right programming sequence for the 2 button oval key fobs for my actual vehicle. Shall I put a new thread up on the electrics section asking for advice from members
Regards
GH

Hi and welcome aboard, loads of advice and experience on here. Take a look at the downloads section in quick links, there lots of how to guides and one just happens to be remote fob programming.

Probably better off creating a thread for each problem.

Hello and welcome. Yes, start another thread in the relevant section and ask away.
Years of experience on this site with these trucks so someone should be along with answers soon.
A picture or two of your truck is a must too.
