The car will start up every day but if I drive it for an hour and try starting it again nothing happens (it doesn't even try and start) and all dashboard warning lights come on.

When it cools down some hours later it will start. Another problem I have is the power windows will only work if the drive side door is open.

So i'm thinking there's an electrical issue maybe...??

Any help appreciated.
Thanks

If your still having trouble with the power windows and the wiki doesn't help you, try and take some pictures of the door pins ond both sides and the wires connected. I've just sorted mine after a year and a half or so of trying. (they only worked with passenger side door open). I'm sure Mr Brianmoooore won't mind me sharing his wisdom
