Vehicle 1994 200tdi disco
The other night (its always as night isn't it) I went to turn lights on and nothing, no full beam, no side lights no Dipped. I get out and notice no interior lights, No clock and no Radio. I think words along lines of oh dear just what I need (except not so polite) and lock the vehicle up, It then unlocks then relocks its self setting alarm off, I put key back in and unlock and relock again and it repeats this. In the end I open up bonnet, unlock relock and disconect battery, as my neighbors were starting to show signs of disaproval (remember this is around 11.30 at night) On reconection of battery in the morning the car does same thing again, then when I get it to stop sounding the alarm it starts to sound when I put key in ignition and try to start it. Its now sitting with a disconected battery as my langauge was starting to cause more upset than the horn beeping.
Has anyone got any idea what is going on? Wouldn't mind as much but I have just fitted new brakes all round rear bearings, new waterpump and given it a service. and fitted a new head gasket. so don't really feel like pulling it apart for scrap.
