I'm back again....
After all your advice re my car failing to start it decided to die completely. Called my breakdown company who sent out a local recovery truck. They hooked my battery to the lorry, started my engine and then he opened my drivers side window (electric). It went down about 5 times the speed that it normally does, which I pointed out to him.
He recommended a new battery, loaded my car onto lorry and we all trundled to the depot. The car came out with a brand new battery....however.....now my drivers side window won't go down. It will go up, but not down. Plus I gained an airbag warning light.
I took the car straight back to them and explained the problem. They looked at it, said it was a coincidence and told me a needed a new 'module' (I have no idea what that is! lol). I took the car away without paying them to fix a problem that I believe they caused.
My question is - could opening the window while hooked to the lorry (bearing in mind the speed it went down) have caused my window to no longer work???
Plus, even with a new battery it took 3 attempts to start my car this morning (very cold again) so I am now utterly confused!!!!
:bang:
Many thanks once again for any help.
