Not familiar with the Vauxhall, but might it be a HVAC blend door actuator making noise?

code 89 means your car is due for a service , not an error code but a message code

I would try 2 things, 1, check your replacement bulb has the same values as your old one ie wattage etc. 2, if it is not the bulb disconnect the negative lead from you battery for approx 10mins, then reconnect.

Some models of Combo Van will need you to remove some pieces of body trim to get to the battery more easily. These are usually held in place with screws or 'push in' clips. Loosen the nut on the clamp on the Negative, (black), terminal and remove the clamp. Next loosen and remove the red positive clamp from that terminal. Next look down all four sides of the battery. Your looking for a bolt head and clamp holding down one edge of the battery. Unscrew this bolt until the clamp is loose. This should release the battery enough for you to wriggle it out. In some cases you might have to remove the clamp to get the battery out. To refit, position the new battery the same way around as the old one. Tighten the clamp that's down the side to hold down the battery. Refit the RED (positive) terminal first and tighten the nut, then refit the BLACK (negative) terminal and tighten that nut as well. Refit any trim and test start the engine. Hope this helped?

To locate the crankshaft sensor the starter has to be removed. Yes you read it right! The starter has to be removed.Starter removal: Two bolts hold the starter in place having 13mm bolt size heads. The bottom bolt has an editional earth cable attached to it.Removing the top bolt is a bit of a struggle, a flat 13mm spanner with slight bend does the trick for when working from under the car.With the starter removed, find a smallish hole about 50mm diameter in the block. Thats the location of the three pronged crankshaft sensor. The wire attached is unclipped from the metal plate and then removed from the block using a 5mm ellen key to remove the bolt holding the crankshaft sensor in position.Do not worry about the bolt coming seperated from the crankshaft sensor. The bolt has a design preventing the bolt from falling out of the crankshaft sensor housing.

It is possible. Next time it happens fill the tank completely, take note of the amount of fuel pumped. Look in your owners manual for tank capacity. If you lost manual they are available on line free.

We're is the crankshaft sensor located on a vauxhall vectra 22 direct

not sure of the set up here from memory ,yes i have repaired them before now but i work on so many makes and models ,suggest you remove the trim in the boot and look in there ,you may find one of the plastic retaining clips has broke off although normally this means the boot will not open ,another fault i often get on many models is the spring on the actual lock breaks which means the jaws will not close .

Im assuming yours is a Right hand drive. There are three fuse panels. The First is under the bonnet next to the battery. The second is inside the glovebox behind a clip out cover panel. (Left hand drive cars have it behind the small drop down storage panel. This is next to the driver's left knee). And the third is in the boot, on the left hand side panel, behind a removable trim cover.

Is you check engine light on...have you check for trouble codes?

Check all your front and rear lights. That code is possibly for the rear side lights. Check each bulb to see if it has blown. Check they are all fitted correctly as loose bulbs can also create these error codes. Check the bulbs to see if they are the correct ones for that light. Some cheaper aftermarket bulbs can be a problem, as well as LED bulbs that shouldn't have been fitted to the car.

Are you sure that it is a spark issue and not injectors?

The symbol you are looking for is the same as the light you see on the dashboard when you use your indicators. The attached image is a common example but some manufacturers use separate fuses for Left and Right. In that case the arrow shape will be the same but there will be a single arrow pointing left for left side and a single arrow pointing right for the right side.
