Title: Help please
Post by: jamma on October 30, 2013, 01:14:38 pm: Guys my car Alarm keeps going off so I took it for a run as I think the battery is low and I notice that the wipers don't work and the heater doesn't light up and turn on , then it comes back then doesn't work again. Plus my windows one minute work then next don't work . Any idea?
Thanks
