OK guys, need a wee pointer in the right direction with this one:
I'm away at work and the wife phones to say all the lights on the dash came on while driving home (a mile to go so she got home and switched engine off). After telling me, I asked her to go and try starting it but noted this
- Went out to car and no lights on
- Put in key and turned to 1st position, all lights came on and stayed on with the battery light being the brightest
- Tried to start engine but it cut out as soon as it turned over
- Switched off and removed key, all lights went out.
Anyone had the same problem and if so please let me know how to fix it - I was thinking Alternator problem
