Hi all,
I seem to have killed my cinq. How i do not know, but the electrics are very very intermittant. Majority of the time it works fine, but has its off moments - ie you go to turn the key and nothing works - completely dead. This usually only lasts a short time before kicking back into life and it works as if nothing had happened. But today it did it and stayed like it, completely dead.
I managed to jump start it off my mates car battery in the end, so my suspicions lie with the battery. If it is, how comes it can go from fine to dead in such a short time? I have no electrical drain on it, and it can last days without problems, or 5 minutes before killing over again. I originally thought it was a grounding wire somewhere, but i stripped them all down today and all was fine. I fiddled with the electrical connectors etc too and they were all tightly connected. So has to be battery right?
