Hi to you all im a new user here,hoping you can all help me..lol
My problem is very strange.....when you turn the ignition the car starts fine every time no problems there,but when you turn ignition to the point where the indicator lights light they dont (all) always come on.So for example when the airbag light doesnt come on but i continue to start the engine,this is what happens:-
The radio doesnt work.
Sometimes the windscreen wipers dont work.
The Horn doesnt work.
The auto window doesnt work (one Touch)
The cruise control doesnt work.
AT night which is the most annoying thing,when i've got my lights on the interior lights come on by its self,so i turn it off and it comes on again and so on.
I have even noticed one time that the brake lights were not coming on aswell.
So what i have been doing is to keep turning ignition on and off without starting the engine untill the airbag light comes on...so i know that everything will work fine.....This is the problem i have very weird.??????????????????????? since this time i have noticed that the auto sensor wipers dont no longer function no does the rear-dim work in my interior rearview mirror i think this might be a different problem all together but any help or advice would be really greatful...

please HELP...!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
