Diab2005 Posted October 23, 2012 Posted October 23, 2012 A weird thing happened today I went to start the car but forgot to press the clutch in (Only bought car 2 weeks ago) the music was on but then when I remembered to press the clutch in all the electrics cut out and wouldnt start up. I had to get out lock the car and unlock to get it to work again. Is this a security thing or something I should get looked at??? Quote
Ricey Posted October 23, 2012 Posted October 23, 2012 Keep an eye on it mate. I've never heard of that before. Even an immobiliser issue wouldn't cause everything to cut out. Don't go spending any money just yet Quote
Diab2005 Posted October 23, 2012 Author Posted October 23, 2012 Its had the iPod hack so dont know if that had anything to do with it? Would be weird for that to affect the whole system though. Quote
Ricey Posted October 23, 2012 Posted October 23, 2012 When you say the electrics cut out the central locking was still working so was it actually just the radio that stopped working? Perhaps it if happens again try the indicators, lights, hazards so you can narrow it down to the ICE Quote
Vlad Posted October 23, 2012 Posted October 23, 2012 may be bad earth? if still happens in the future, try checking earth or even getting an earthing kit? had that on my old focus. Quote
