weird electrics ?????

[alan325i]

Well where do i start................ first of all my electric windows dont open unless dor is open, then the fan dont work no more then the weirdest thing of all happened.........driving down road at 60mph and the radio starts to cut out on me, then the ABS warning light comes on and then to top if all off the headlights and dash lights go out on me, this happened for about 2 miles and then all went back to normal bar the windows and fan.

Any suggestions on what it could be

did time seem to stand still and your bum hole feel sore afterwards?

Sorry, no idea about the gremlins in the wiring though

Windows - check fuse 17, unplug relay K5 in the fusebox and short pins 30 and 87 of the socket together with a short piece of wire. Check green/blue wire is still plugged into the accessories socket behind the glovebox and check the relay that lives near this socket.
Heater fan - check fuse 20, unplug relay K7 and short 30 and 87 as above.
Rest of problems - check the smaller wires bolted to the battery + termonal connector are tight and not corroded.

That lot will do for a start.

ok heres how it stands at the moment.

Done as u described and all works by croosing them with wire.

Then i just put one of the relays back in, heater relay in and worked, put blower one in nothing worked.

So took them both out and started with the blower relay, blower worked, put electric window relay in as well no blower and no windows.

So for some reason if i put the 2 relays in nothing works. Only if i put 1 in do i get any joy.

There are four terminals on your starter motor, two large, one medium and one small with a black/green wire(may be under black sleeving).
Check this wire is tight and not corroded. If this doesn't work, then disconnect this wire from the starter motor and earth it.
