randomly the alarm, and electric windows have packed up. i reckon its a fuse as i can still use the keys to work the windows, and i've never had any problems before,

and i did have the stereo cranked a bit - could it of pulled too much current and popped a fuse somewhere?

gotta get up at 6 tomorrow to have a look at it - niice

also does anyone have any idea if the bit of plastic that goes into the rear wiper motor for the squirty is that available seperatly or is it a whole new motor? mine's split on the bit of plastic going into the pump not the hose itself? pita

you can get a repair kit from the dealers for the wiper motor or just some copper pipe is another fix
