Problem...

[Stubruvts]

Right then didnt no where to post this so posted it here....

Last night i ran my battery flat accidently, managed to get it bump started again and thought everything would be fine, turns out i was wrong, everything works apart from my dials, i.e speedo,rev counter, temperature etc and also the motorised screen to my headunit will not flip out, what could be the problem, will it be simply that the battery needs more charging or something else?

Cheers in advance people

Not sure but first thing I would do is charge the battery overnight, give that a try

[hesslevtr]

u checked fuses and relays

If it went flat last night it wont be fine just after a bump start. You need to charge it/buy a new battery.

But the chances are, if its completely flat, you wont be able to charge it upto a good level.

dodgy alternator ???

Yer, i am going to check the fuses in a second, i kept the car running pretty much all last night thinking it would re-charge it, now the car starts first time again so possibly just needs more charging, will have to wait for my neighbour give me my charger back

[jclaydon]

Oh right, didnt know you'd left it running to charge it. As hessle said, check your fuses.

Which fuses could it be tho becuase my headunit still turns on and plays music just the screen wont open and are the headunit and speedo on the same fuses?

[Stubruvts]

Possible, will go check them all now, cheers for the quick responses people, and sorry for posting in the wrong section :)

Theres a table in the handbook which tells you which fuses are relevant to which. I dont know off the top of my head.

Right then people, one problem is sorted, checked all the fuses and found one 10 amp fuse had blown, changed that and now my dash is working, still one problem tho, the problem being my stereo, it turns on and plays cds but the motorised screen will not flip out and it will not skip tracks, any suggestions, it is a prioneer headunit
