Guest Bloody-Fox Posted August 5, 2008 Share Posted August 5, 2008 When i start my car for the first time in the morning my clocks are blinking like a bloody disco... The warning lamps for ABS and handbrake are blinking and the lamp for the alternator is lighting constantly, and the revmeter only operates sometimes... But when i drive home in the evening all lamps are out like they should be... Has anyone ever had problems like this or knows what could it be?

Guest Bloody-Fox Posted August 5, 2008 Share Posted August 5, 2008 could be a dodgy earth connection??? dunno, mate! After the crash i changed the clocks, and since then i have this problem... So it could either be the clocks shity or the crash damaged something... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest lutonman12 Posted August 7, 2008 Share Posted August 7, 2008 think theres a few in the engine bay,basically they will be bits of wire from different places to the body,not sure exactly how many but theres usually one from the engine,one from the g/box,one from the batt tray area,one from the fusebox,(i think there was a thread on here about this)just clean up all the contact points,give em a little sand down so your defo gettin metal to metal contact.amazing how many little niggly bits doin this can remedy!!!!!hope this helps Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
