Hi all! We have been experiencing an issue on site where threads have been missing the latest postings. The platform host Vanilla are working on this issue. A workaround that has been used by some is to navigate back from 1 to 10+ pages to re-sync the thread and this will then show the latest posts. Thanks, Mike.

    check all the fuses,under the steering column,under the passenger seat and under the pass. side dash
    make sure all the fuses are actually there and none are blown

    Sounds like a blown fuse, had a similar problem with a Peugeot Partner last week. A short in the radio blew two fuses which disabled the dash and prevented the van from starting, simple fix and the owner was delighted it wasn't anything more sinister.

    Why did you disconnect the battery? Was it discharging? Fuses usually blow when running or when the ignition is switched on. The relevant fuses which would effect the starting would be located under the steering column.
