What do you mean not starting? Do you mean the engine won't turn over at all or it turns over but won't run? What has been done so far? What happened before it quit running?

The Engin does not turn at all. The car was parked to be washed. My daughter wanted to play radio whilst washing and the radio just stopped working. I have checked all fuses, they are still fine. The ILL Relay makes a continuous noise, but when the driver door opens, the noise stops.

Hi There. In the meantime I have recharged the battery on 19 Feb just because there was no displays. No radio etc, which seem to have worked. What I think might have happened is that it was raining the previous day and maybe something got wet and made a short? For now the car is running again for the second day. Thanks
