A quick check will confirm that it's a disconnected earth - connect a wire from
battery -ve (at the battery itself) to the earthy side of any non-working item.
If the problem is a bad earth the item will spring into life.
Best regards
Bill

On the saloon there is a mass (lots of wires) earth connection on the A pillar
next to the fuse box. If that gets loose it could explain your problems. Also
check the earth wires at the battery. Chris G From: bennie Sent: Wednesday,

Electrics Failure Hi,
I have a 2+2 and on Monday after driving for 50-60 miles I noticed that the
indicators had suddenly stopped working.
I had actually just joined the A1(M) so over the next few miles a check
revealed that the only thing still working was the engine. No indicators,
radio, heater fan, electric windows, fuel gauge - the list goes on. I left the
A1(M) and pulled into a layby.
I pulled the bonnet release, got out of the car, went to the nearside to open
the bonnet and my wife then said that the radio had started working.
(Unfortunately I didn't have time to check the lights)
A further check revealed that everything else was back on line.
I did wonder whether the action of opening the door or using the boot release
may have re-disturbed the wiring to make everything work again but when I got
home and tried to move the wiring, where possible, everything kept on working.
I am now assuming that with everything failing that this is not a relay/fuse
issue and it is a (major) intermittent earthing fault. However before
starting a major hunt which will probably involve removing the dashboard I was
looking for any suggestions, recommendations, advice as to whether my diagnosis
is correct or whether it could be some simple fix! Any thoughts gratefully
received. Thanks Phil Holden
