Ok Two Weeks Ago The Clutch Master Cylinder Went. Two Weeks Later And I've Managed To Find A Replacement. So Last Night Started The Job, I Thought I Start It Up First Seeing As The Car Has Not Been Run. (although I Have Been Turning The Car Over During The Two Weeks So Not To Get A Flat Battery)

Starts Fine But All My Dashboard Lights On - All Orange And Red. I Revved It Up And The Lights Went Off Only To Return When The Revs Died Down. I Switched It Off Then Started Again Same Problem This Time The Lights Didnt Go Off When Revved. Turned Off Again Then Started, But This Time It Struggled As If The Battery Was Flat. So I Gave Up And Went About Changing Cylinder Which I Might Add Is Very Easy.

Please Help As Its Starting To Remind Me Of My Last Car Which In The End I Sold.

i would wait until someone who knows what they're talking about comes online, but it could be worth resetting the ecu. make sure you have the radio code though.

I'd say the battery is to weak.Even though you started the car over the two weeks,if you didn't take it out for a run of atleast 5-10 miles the alternator would not of have enough time to charge the battery back up again.Put the battery on charge for 24 hours and see what happens.

Good luck.

MIKEST5R problem wasn't hard. On fitting his top radiator hose he had dislodged/knocked the fuel rail relay, I had a feeling as soon as he described his problem, as I have said before when it comes to 850's its always 1 of 5 faults, easypeasylemonsqueezy,this one may be more taxing, I need to know which lights the member is talking about, I assume it is the dasboard warning lights, but,I will wait and see, I think dampness or a crossed/damaged fuse or connection,could be a job for WD40,Paullyp.
