Spent a few hours chasing electrical problems that I haven't been able to pin down yet. P38 2.5 DT auto 1999. So sad. Why does she hurt me so?
Started up fine. School run. Back in and internal lights all flash up at once and all go off. No power getting to anything. Checked battery voltage and it was 12.67V. Still no power to anything. Hooked up some jump leads regardless and she started up immediately. No fault codes.
She ran fine all day after that until an hour ago it happened again except this time there weren't even any keys in the ignition! I was stood next to the car and the alarm sounded just once. All lights on and off. No power to anything. Then a 5 minute wait out period (no jump leads) and I tried her again. She started first time.
I'm terribly vexed.
12.6 sounds low if you have just parked up.
