Just got my classic out of storage, and it has aquired some faults... as exected i suppose!

The electric windows have all died (were all fine prior)Checked fuses ?Cleaned the runners for the glass?Can get chundered up.
The rev counter does not work below 2K porperly (rarley reading anything, untill over 2K is, then shots up to correct reading, till it drops down again)

The brake lights stick on although pulling the brake pedal up will make them go off sounds like the brakes might be sticking.Wohats it drive like?

Both front seats have no back ajustment in one direction, the fore/aft and tilt work fine, and the drivers memory will move the drivers seat in the non working direction. think thats covered on here somewhere, have a quick search

Any Ideas?

The car is a '92 non cat 3.9 Vogue SE with no air suspension

a bit of use will help sort the rev counter out. classics hate being stored, the more you use them the better they perform.
the window switches(if not the fuses as previously suggested) and seat switches may need cleaning, possibly greened up on the brass/copper connections, hence why the drivers seat works on memory.also the front windows do have the auto open ecu, so check that as well, you can also hold a switch to the open position and tap the window motor at the same time, that might resolve the problem.
i do have motors and switches from a 93 classic i broke so if you need anything let me know, i am in hertford

Its possible the seat switches have corroded, but the odd thing is... it's the same adjustemnt in the same direction on both seats!

Same with the window motors, in fact new switches last year! and it's all the windows (is there a common earth?), curiously the AC now works (compressor kicks in and cold air is made!) so maybe it just wanted me to know this?
