i have a pretty strange problem. i just tried to start my marea today. It turned all eletric indicators on fine upon key turn.
When i tried to start, the car just died..
I thought ok, may be a fuse, but nope all fine..
The radio worked but the cd did not.. and no lights in the dashboard (very dim) it seemed realy strange.
I got it jump started by wire from a battery and thought that it was just low power. But no, when i keep the lights off, the engine keeps running, but as soon as i turn on the lights the car just dies. And i have to get wires on it again.. I did measure the thing that charges the car, and when engine running it is like 14.5V. When the engine is off and no power is on, my volt meter shows 12.1 on the battery it self.
When i turn the key, the clock dims .. and the lights in the dashboard is very, very dim..
When i drive i can turn on the lights when driving fast, but it gives huge cough.. and i turn them of and evrything is fine again... btw. all the electric things will make the dashboard dim a bit when turned on during driving.
??? all and any advice will be very welcome?? (i just spend to much money fixing alot of other stuff on the car including timing belt... :bang: )
