You can enable/disable many options in the Valeo BCU screen. You can turn on/off…
Speed lock option… locks doors when you drive off.
single point entry… only the one driver’s door unlocks from the key fob. Hit the unlock button again for all the doors to unlock.
ACE
SLS… if you’ve removed the rubber air bags for suspension and replaced with coil springs you’ll need to turn off this SLS option.
Alarm
DRL
Courtesy head lamps… This allows for the headlights to come on for 10-15 seconds (?) for safety at nighttime.
Heated front screen
seat belt warning and sound
cruise control
Odometer error warning… if the odometer reading doesn’t match what’s on the BCU or vice versa, the odometer will flash. This option will stop the flashing odometer
+ other options…

The Nanocom is very handy.
thanks

Pardon the shop cleanliness.Turbo manifold partially finished, have to plumb a pipe from the driver side to the passenger side manifold. Also note the other RoV8....possible 4.X in the makings. Also, don’t roast me lol for not having all bolts in position, this is in the fitting/mock stages. Questions/comments/concerns welcome.

Picked up a replacement harmonic balancer, a transmission pan with a dip stick, input and output seals for the 1.4 t-case, and will be back by Roadside Werx on monday to pick up a mangled Voyager rack to fix (was in a rollover and needs one side bent back and welded).

Default I’m have a noise from alternator area

Seems like the bearings or something are going out by or in the alternator. I bought this one not too long ago so I’m not really sure if the alternator has been replaced or not. It’s almost the sound of a scary movie. Mmmm mmmm mmmm mmmm. Any ideas before I tear it apart trying to find the culprit?
