Having only had this car for 2 days (I bought it privately), I've had a couple of niggly electrical problems which I wonder if anyone can shed light on. Previous owner denies any knowledge of these faults.
I bought the car 2 days ago and all seemed fine. This morning I noticed that the clock and date had re-set themselves overnight. The date was showing
01-01-01 and the time was showing 01.00I re-set this to the correct time / date and went shopping. On returning to the car the boot wouldn't open! I could hear the switch clicking as I tried to open but nothing! Eventually opened it with a screwdriver from inside.
This evening I went to the car, time and date are wrong again, but now the boot opens!! I tried wiggling the cable loom next to the boot hinge in an attempt to make it fail again, but it just kept on working. Drove to the filling station, tried the boot, and yes it wouldn't open again.
Can anyone suggest what's going on?
Many thanks Chris
