    Thumbs down Car Issue

    zzzz! I have an issue with my car.

    Last night I start my car and the headunit wasn't working, so today I checked the fuses/tried restarting the HU etc but couldn't get it to work. About an hour later I go to drive my car and it has a little trouble turning over but it gets going, but all my dash lights are out except for my little climate control screen (even the speed alert screen). So yeh I'm stumped, obviously I cant drive the car because I cant see the dash. I also tried locking the car after I cracked the shits with it but it wouldn't lock, so yeh the central locking doesnt work either!

    any suggestions????

    i would be looking at the fuses inside and outside the car
    have you done anything lately to your car?
    might be the battery, but check your fuses first

    well its not the battery, I just went and got a new one (needed one anyway)

    and yeh still have the same issue.

    a few lights on the dash display work such as the highbeam light, TCL light, seatbelt light, but yeh no speedo or anything, the speed alert and HU still arent working either. The car also has trouble turning over.

    any more ideas????

    *just a note that the HU stopped working before everything else?? dont know if this suggests anything?

    Regarding the gauges not working, are you sure the dimmer isn't just turned all the way down?

    Sounds like you had a loose terminal on the battery and the constant touching/not touching has caused some fuses to blow. Check the main fuses under the bonnet and check all fuses in the footwell.
