Help please from the huge knowledge database out there.
Yesterday I went to give my car a run as it has been unused for about a month (it did have a CTEK battery conditioner connected all that time). She started fine but it was evident something was binding as I had no movement. Thinking it was probably the brakes I gave it a rock in first gear. After 3 or 4 goes there was a thump & I thought goodo but the engine stalled at the same time.
Since then I have been unable to start the engine. I tried a battery reset several times before giving up last evening.
I have had the battery on the CTEK overnight & it shows fully charged this morning but still no joy.
The gearbox is in 1st & will not select anything else on the paddles. On one attempt the gear indicator was flashing but it only happened the once. The pump is running as it should when opening the door.
I am guessing a relay or fuse has probably blown - I HOPE it's not any more than that as I'm into a new clutch before the better weather comes!! Any ideas which one it would be??
Resolution for 2014 - drive it more often even if it's raining!!
All ideas gratefully received. Tks
