|  Electrical problem... Hi there, am having a bit of bother with the Felicia, started perfectly at work last night, got home no bother. Went back out to the car to head out again, turned the key and the electrics went completely dead, starter motor wasn't even turning...Definitely not the battery as all the lights were as bright as normal etc... Then after that a loud clicking noise was coming from the fuse box, and the radio was turning itself on randomly all night  Any help/advice greatly appreciated _____________________ |

| Re: Electrical problem... It might be something like a bad earth somewhere, so check the connections... Otherwise it could be an immobiliser issue, which may not be so easy to fix, I'm afraid... (Although that wouldn't explain the radio???)

| Re: Electrical problem... If it was the ignition switch would that cause other electrical problems with the radio etc tho? Might try just replacing the battery as someone did in the previous thread, the battery was flat a few months ago by my own fault but since then nothing's been wrong, maybe just the starter motor taking an extra half second or 2 recently... |
