was driving my corsa as you do when the stereo cut out, and then followed by the dash lights going out, the needles on the 3electric dials fell down and the engine cut out at the traffic lights.

the engine starts up fine but conks out when slowing down.

ive had to pull the dials part off the dash as the indicator light kept flashing for no reason and started making a weird soung.

the rear windscreen knob when pulled out makes the revometer idle at 1000rpm even if the car is clearly not doing 1000rpm.

any ideas

btw no i havnt chaged any light bulbs as i know that fucks things up if there wrong

i topped the water up a few hours before that, and took the amp and sub out the back of my car but the live for the amp wasnt connect so shudnt be that.

another thing is i fitted my eibachs and konis just before it to and the rides a lot harder and hit a few bumps, maybe a wires come loose or like you said shorted somit out

will look at relays n stuff tomorro

its just everything on the inside of the car

indicators, brake lights etc on outside work ok
