fosnni Posted October 26, 2014 Share Posted October 26, 2014 I have a 2010 SMAX Titanium 2.0 Diesel and I recently had my Alarm Sounder battery Backup changed but my wipers still came on full when I drove above 25mph. Took it straight back to the dealer and they diagnosed corrosion on the GEM unit caused by a water ingress. They cleaned out the GEM unit and plugged it all back together and everything is fine. But I am worried about where the water came from. I have read about the TSB on the Aircon pipe but it does say that 2007 on models are not affected and I dont have a pool of water on the footwell. Anybody have any ideas..... Also can I wrap the GEM unit in kitchen paper or something else which might stop any future water ingress, will the GEM unit overheat of I do...

137699 Posted October 27, 2014 Share Posted October 27, 2014 Ask this question on the S-max owners club forum. There are a number of members on there who will be familiar with the location of the GEM and the reasons for it's failure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
