I've never posted an intro here, so I hope it's not rude to suddenly post my problem. However, I'm lost as to what to think - so here goes!
This morning when I started my 1994 manual transmission SL1 I noticed the battery light was on. I kept driving, but noticed my wipers and automatic windows were moving very slowly. I pulled into a friend's work to have him look at it (without shutting it off), but left fairly soon afterwards. As soon as I began driving again the center console, underneath the emergency brake, began clicking loudly. I pulled over and turned around to head home. By then my car was cutting out and the dash lights were flickering on and off. I pulled over again just as the car died.
Now, when we turn the key to 'accessory' the dash lights come on like normal, but the car doesn't start. The center console ticking continued
- even with the car shut off - until my husband unhooked the wire clip underneath the plastic cover (under the e-brake).
Ok, I know that's a load of info. Where do we begin? Does this sound like an electrical problem? Who do I search for to repair something like this? FWIW, I recently had the battery and alternator tested and they were fine.
Ugh - thanks in advance. Tracy
