Explicit resolution reports before identified causes, performed actions and suggestions. Within each level, matching component labels precede direct query mentions and inherited thread context; successful versus unsuccessful discussion counts, owner confirmations and independent discussion support determine order. This is not a probability of success.

Turned out to be a loose main earth on the battery where it bolts to the car, not battery

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

4 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

0 evidence records excluded for query context · 0 excluded by outcome qualification · 0 adjusted by outcome qualification.

0 acknowledgements have no verified action link; they do not establish a repair result.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

I had a stop/start warning yesterday and planned to get it looked at this week, no major concern until this morning when it progressed to a yellow electrical fault before shutting off while on a dual carriageway and starting back up - then the warnings flowed: - electrical fault - inspection required - drive fail - rear wheel drive only - inspection required - rear diff fail - drive accordingly - inspection required - another I didn’t catch Limped home on back roads and when I turned it off - everything went black screen wise. No power. Theft alert. Can’t even shut the door. Recovery on way. Anyone had anything similar? I expect the 15 month old 6.5k mile battery has failed, but really? Happy Sunday!

POST 2Original post

Same happened to me, no prior warnings then complete shutdown, no power to anything. Turned out to be a loose main earth on the battery where it bolts to the car, not battery

POST 3 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Turns out I have has a visitor - damage to wiring loom. Anyone had any experience around this? I’m gutted. But will get it sorted. Never been in any of the other cars in the garage or the bike.

Gusto said: Turns out I have has a visitor - damage to wiring loom. Anyone had any experience around this? I’m gutted. But will get it sorted. Never been in any of the other cars in the garage or the bike. Ouch! I dread this in mine (it lives in a car port on an old farm). Hope it's not too serious, and that your insurance will cover it (it should). Edited by anonymous-user on Monday 21st October 13:07
