• Toyota Yaris mk II 2007 - Unresponsive driver console 28 Jan 2024 (Forum)
  Headlights and cabin light do not turn on. Seems to be no power at all. Central locking not working with remote key fob. Car battery is 18 months old, reading 12.56 volts. Disconnecting and then reconnecting the battery console lights up and shows *all* warning lights on, and sets the clock at 12:00. Warning lights disappear after starting up, car drives OK.
• Honda Accord 1.8 SE Auto 1999 - resetting the alarm 18 Mar 2020 (Forum)
  Hi everyone I've owned this car since 2000, except for a few blips I've had a good run and it's been very reliable. Recently I had to leave it with a local garage and the battery drained so they had to jump start it. OK no no problem but now I've found that the alarm has it's gone off and the battery has drained too. So I'm presuming its the alarm which is draining so I've needed to lock it with the deadlocks.Sometime in the past I'm sure I needed to reset it and there was a button/switch in one of the rear''s back section.

• Vauxhall Astra life 2007 petrol 1.8 hatchback - Difficulty starting car in morning 9 Feb 2019 (Forum)
  The mechanic noticed that the rocker cover gasket was leaking oil and the oil could be leaking onto the plugs & that could be the reason why as it wasn't giving enough spark , and the battery was tested and found to be weak. I changed the gasket , spark plugs & battery.  I started the car it started first time. Strated the car this morning and the problem returned. It's like a initial strong surge then cuts out and it takes about 30 sec for it to catch.
• Peugeot 207 - Peugeot 207 1.4 needs throttle to start 29 Feb 2016 (Forum)
  The engine warning light on the dashboard goes out a couple of seconds after the engine has started. This may not be relevant, but the very old battery was recently changed due to an interesting day when I had "electrical fault" warning on the display followed by ABS warning light, dim headlights and eventually power steering failure. There's been no issues since replacing the battery.
• Chrysler grand voyager 2.5crd 2004 - Electrical problems 8 Apr 2014 (Forum)
  Suddenly when you opened the doors the wing mirrors started opening and closing which they have never done since I had it. next time I got in it it wouldntt start, its very sluggish battery and wont fire. I tried jump start and is still sluggish, tried charging battery for 2 days and still sluggish. Had a diagnostic check and it shows nothing. Does anyone have any ideas what may be the cause as my local mechanic has no clue. so dont want to start replacing various parts trying to find the problem.
• Mercedes-Benz E-Class Estate - Instrument panel gone blank 9 Feb 2013 (Forum)
  "Disconnect the earth(negative/minus sign)lead only and run a jump lead > from the detached earth lead to the positve/plus terminal of the battery > and leave it attached for 5 mins. Under no circumstances allow the > detached earth lead to touch the vacant earth terminal of the battery" I have checked the fuses and to the best of my limited knowledge they look OK.
• 05 Renault Espace 1.9 tdi - error messages after brake replacement 18 Jul 2012 (Forum)
  It is bringing up a constant string of error messages for parts of the car which have not even been touched during this job (E.g. Air Bags) Last time we had such a display of errors it was due to a flat battery. We have now fully charged the battery and still have the same problem. Can anyone help us? We are due to go on holiday on 4 days and need the car to get us there! Is there a reset code or something that we need to enter after disconnecting the automatic parking brake?

• FIAT Punto - Power steering light on the dashboard 26 Mar 2012 (Forum)
  The battery is a Yuasa and is only 2 years old so I don;t think that's faulty. I've checked all the fuses that are mentioned in the Haynes PAS wiring diagram and they seem fine too. I've got an OBDII connector but can't find the socket to read the codes, any ideas??

• Megane Renault Hatchback (10 yrs + old, good cond) - Small Electrical fault? Just cuts out. 25 Mar 2011 (Forum)
  VERY pleased with my sec hand Megane (in France) Dont know why the engine cuts out sometimes. Does anyone have any ideas? It goes perfectly all the while. The Battery stays fully charged. Last time it cut out, was when I went over a bump. I carry a second battery, & it starts every time when connected - and continues trouble free till the next cut out.
