Hi Guys
I am experiencing a new problem.
When I am driving the car the engine will suddenly stop, I look at the petrol gauge and the needle has returned to position zero.
I turn the ignition key to the off position and try to start it in the usual fashion, but there is no juice at all. The petrol gauge has stopped working and the starter button is dead.
On one of these occasions a passerby helped as I was on a junction. We rolled the car back into a safer position and tried again to no avail, and this time the passerby tried the key and the starter button and thought that there was something up with the ignition switch. After a few minutes passed I tried and got juice so could start it again.
It is possible that the switch could be to blame. That would explain why nothing works, so I have ordered up a new ignition switch and it should arrive today.
Has any one experienced this problem, or have any further thoughts on why this could be happening?
