about a year ago (in cold / wet weather ) car unlocked as usual with remote keyfob but when ign turned on a chime sounded and the "M & S" light flashed, the dash did not display the gearselection ( its auto so should show "PRND321" as selected ) and car failed to start, further checks showed that I had also lost seat adjusters, windows, hazard and indicators, rear wiper and numerous various random circuits. I spent hours checking connection thinking that water had got in somewhere but failed to find a fault, in desparation it was towed to the local main agent who aslo could not trace the fault. Strangely after a few days it started and has been perfect ever since --- until last week when all the previous faults returned, plus some bizarre extra things happen - the intermittant front wiper relay clicks even with the ignition turned off, the rear washer works but not the wiper, sometimes the door locks and alarm work - but not always, sometimes the fault disapears and the car drives perfectly, once started it never goes wrong until its turned off, after which its pot luck if it will play up or not. Hopefully some other poor soul has had this problem and can shed some light on it before the rest of my hair is pulled out .. !!
