Gremlins since respray

Post by Elford0 »

Haven't been able to get to drive as often as I would like so my Elf has been sitting on the driveway. Bad thing that and gremlins are creeping in.

Wipers come on when I start up and they do not turn off.
Lights turn on but do not flip up.

Each time I get the car started something stops or starts.
Almost Basil Fawlty time as the rear wash and aerial are now not working either.

Have gone through all the fuses and they look all fine .
There is a lot of under dash wiring so do not know where to start.

I have an immobiliser could this affect anything

Any help appreciated. Perhaps an electrical mechanic recommendation?

Thanks
Gaham
