Hi all

Car started, then virtually immediately cut out, when i turn the key the dashboard lights up and flashes and there is a clicking noise. AA guy started it with a battery pack and it started straight away and did some testing, when the heaters were switched on the engine jumped, got me home but the radio wouldn't work and now it won't start again. Not the alternator AA guy said, so a lot of head scratching going on here.

Can anyone please help?? :)

1) Check voltage across battery.

Start/Jump start car.

2) Check voltage, engine running, No load.
2) Check voltage, engine running, lights and rear windscreen heater on.

Give us your readings and we'll tell you if you should be changing to the RAC :)

Hi

Turned out to be the battery :) got a new one and the car is running perfectly, not impressed with the placement of the bolt for the holding belt though, but then nothing "simple" turns out to be easy. All sorted now, though when i close the bonnet the horn beeps???
