big g1985 Posted February 15, 2014 Share Posted February 15, 2014 After my wife drove through a big puddle we e had a strange electrical fault when u lock the car (54 plate 1.6 tdc) Basically when you lock the car the wipers will operate a small amount and the heater control lights illuminate then go out. I've check the fuse box in the engine bay and I've noticed here is a loose live cable at the top of the box Can't see where it should attach. I've moved it out of he way I case it was shorting on something but I still have the same fault Any help will be appreciated Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeebowhite Posted March 3, 2014 Share Posted March 3, 2014 Sounds like moisture in the box, check the engine bay for signs of water ingress. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jeebowhite Posted March 5, 2014 Share Posted March 5, 2014 Thought as much, sadly it is more common than would like to be! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
