hey evryone, having big problems with saxo. i bought a new kenwood CD player yesterday and brought it home to fit myself as i hav done with others. i started out by disconnecting the negative terminal from the battery and then got inside the car, i fitted the new connecter block to the wiring of the car behing where the cd player slots in and plugged in the arial antenae.
happy that the cd player was in okay i got out of the car and went back to the engine bay, i then re connected the negative battery terminal and closed the bonnet. getting back into the car i then turned the ignition and found that i had hardly any power and most things were working just not at the same time as if there was not enough power for them all like normal, when the lights were off or on low beam the dash board lit up but the indicators would not work and when i tried them or the hazzards a strange electrical screaming noise came from the electric panel box on the passenger side. the ignition will make one clicking noise when i turn the key and this is only on low beam or no lights at all (with high beam switched on nothing comes on at all not even the headlights or interior lights) once i have tried turning the igniton every light dies away for a couple of seconds. There is a light on the dash with a square and a key which i can only think is the ignition light?
sorry to write such an essay but i really am well and truly baffled as i hav not much know on auto electrics,
any help would be great, thanks guys :)
