electrical gremlins -
lights have been a bit hit and miss this last week, but i found the cause of that in a loose connection on the twin optics...LOL Peugeot using an uninsulated spade connector... f*cking ow... remember children, don't screw around with electric stuff in the pitch black when the battery is still connected = much easier to just use a torch
then this morning, after a couple days of niceness, no problems, dead.... nothing, kaput, nada, el fuckoffo,
let me into the car, lights came on, starter clicked, everything off, no power to anything.... great, walking in the rain is so much fun
so came back to it, fusebox diagram in hand, a drain of .3A hmmm, not a lot but still, checked the fuses 1 by 1, radio let it drop to .12A, so probably that then, checked the voltage - 12.5.. 0.0
started first bloody time, no problems at all
french electrics are....shit
