Happy rainy bank holiday folks.
I need some help with my Toledo (Mk2)
Friday evening im driving along and the EPS light, lights up on the dash. Brake lights not coming on so i assume that, the brake light switch is the problem. The next day the light is no longer on and the brake lights are working fine.
I assume that the switch is on its way out and i purchase a new one. However on the way back from the garage my battery light comes on. Then goes off, i give it some gas it comes on again. This happens all the way home. Car still seems to be running fine and i drive it a few more time with no problem, just the battery light coming on and off.
Que today on route to the shops with the misses. Its raining as wipers are on, radio is on, lights are on etc. etc. The battery light is sill coming on when i give it plenty of right foot. Then as i'm sat in traffic, the radio turns off, abs light, traction control light and air bag lights all come on, the dash back light dims, wipers go in super slow mode, rev counter is jumpy as is the speedo.
I didn't notice any preformance problems but i didn't give it any beans i simply nursed the car home. Turned it off and tried to re-start. The car would not turn over at all.
I left it for 30 mins and tried again. This time starts up no problem and with no warning lights.
Any ideas what's going on?
Cheers
Ryan
