moby Posted December 17, 2015 Share Posted December 17, 2015 I have a spare fiesta which has been trouble free for years, moved it about 100 yards and parked up for around 2 months now it won't start, not just not start, nothing happens when I turn the key, no sound at all, no dash lights, nothing, battery is good, lights all fine, doors lock/un-lock, but it seems like no power is getting to the controls as the instrument panel does not light up at all,Is there a relay or fuse covering this,? I have checked all the fuses and they are ok, The keys are without "blipper" having just a blue chip in the handle. I took out the instrument panel and checked the connections and all seems ok. Please Help, Someone.!!! :wacko: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MONDEO TXS 2.2 Posted December 17, 2015 Share Posted December 17, 2015 2 months without use is easily long enough for the battery to go flat - how do you know it's ok ? have you had the battery load tested ? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moby Posted December 17, 2015 Author Share Posted December 17, 2015 Just to be on safe side I fitted a brand new fully charged battery, no difference.!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GingerFlame Posted December 17, 2015 Share Posted December 17, 2015 Have you checked the engine bay fuses? There's also relays in the engine bay that could have failed. They're behind the battery tray. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
