hi all,
i am in desperate need of help also - i am rubbish with cars and jargon to be honest, so Lehman’s terms required please
i brought my first range rover 1999 HSE 4.6l diesel a few months ago, i generally only drive it over the weekend, ok so i haven’t drove it in say 2 weeks..so i needed to top up the washer liquid, so i unlocked the car, opened the bonnet, did that, i also thought while i am there i will clean my leather seats, so again unlocked the car (i think, i may have left it open!) then proceeded to wash all the seats front and back..
i thought let me check to see if the washer jets were ok, but i put my key in, nothing! - no front lights, engine doesn’t tick over, like i say no lights come on, and i noticed the back doors and sometimes the front doors are self locking continuously...i read in the manual they you have to put the key in the ignition within 30 seconds (i definitely didn’t do this) - have i immobilised my car? - so, i tried the code emergency thingy which was in my service pack, but this did nothing - any suggestions? i am completely lost and upset as this is my pride and joy loll...i am sure it's not a huge problem, but i am concerned, as before that the car was driving like a dream and never a warning massage at all!, now, it doesn’t even say key in ignition or anything, but i did notice that my fobs light flashes with i have it in the ignition and turn it...also the parking gear light comes on - also when i try and start the engine i get the 3 beep warning, but no lights or anything come on at all....
please help me guys - a very scared newbie
