Hi,

Went out earlier and the car was fine, just got back and on the way noticed a few problems:

1) Indicator and hazard lights dont make the clicking noise anymore. They do work, they just dont click
2) Temperature gauge just shows "--"
3) Brake light (!) just stays on all the time.
4) Central locking is broken. Pressing the lock on the keyfob and the doors click but they dont lock. Pressing the lock on either the passenger or drivers side doors, only locks that individual door, not all the doors anymore.

Is this likely to be something like the fuses? I looked and the fuse box diagrams and can find the obvious central locking ones, but nothing that seems to be relevant for the other issues.

Thanks!
 
So i replaced the "Central Locking relay" fuse and "Central Locking Drivers Door" fuse under the glove compartment and the "Central Locking Ignition" fuse in the engine bay (although they weren't blown) and that did nothing. Tried to reprogram the key but after i do the I/II switch back and forth four times i never hear the tone to reprogram the key, so that didn't work either. Not that i think it's the key since the central locking doesn't even work using the door switches.

For the other problems i checked the brake fluid - looks fine.

For the missing tick tock when the indicators are on - is this noise controlled by a fuse somewhere?

Has anyone encountered anything like this before or got any other suggestions before i pay four million pounds for a garage to take a look?

Also, will the car be immobilised and alarmed right now? The doors were locked from the inside and i locked the drivers door from the outside.

Thanks!
