Electric fault

[Nich]

Hi, I've had my 260 for a month, today the alarm started going off and the front and back windscreen wipers are going made, now I can't lock the car, it just beeps when you push the lock button on the Alarm, when you put the key in and turn it, the wipers stop, also it sometimes says the left side indicator bulbs are out, but they aren't, they work fine with the hazard lights etc. Someone suggested on another site it could be the bcu, where can I find this? Is it in the same place on the standard rovers 75s have the ecu?

Sounds suspiciously like you have a failing battery. Lots of info on here once you get your questionnaire back to Tim and become a full member.

Yes Nich, I would say 100% certain. If you recall my 'Olive' did EXACTLY the same. Your advice then was invaluable (and accurate).
All cured simply by fitting a new Varta in place of an 18 month(!) old Bosch.
