Hey guys,
Not a clue where to begin diagnosing the latest problem. Filled up my 1.4 99 Meridian last night, and when I put the keys in the ignition and turned it to the battery, my dials all went to maximum with most or all of the dash lights coming on. This much had happened the other day and I noted it. So I turned the key back and started again, this time getting no response whatsoever, no turning over, no battery or any kind of dashlight; just able to turn the key fully clockwise in the ignition without any response. After a few minutes of turning and effing, it started fine, with the dash lights and dials coming on normally and the engine beginning normally.
I have no idea what this could be and am struggling to explain it to find the answers elsewhere online, but I'm thinking it might be something to do with the ignition or starter motor?
Any knowledge would be gratefully received.
Thanks guys,
Harry.
