I have warning lights on the dash as follows: ABS - Traction control - Stability control - Lightning Bolt with Spanner - Fuel info says “F”kms to empty - no speedo or tacho - wipers came on randomly & wouldn’t turn off - engine wouldn’t turn off with key, turn key off & remove it from ignition but engine still run so put key back in & took a few goes to turn off, Lights on dash will come on while driving & sometimes go off & sometimes stay on & sometimes not just very random, Car doesn’t handle the best when lights are on, can I still drive this???
Recently (3-4wks ago) replaced Camshaft Position Sensor - Camshaft Position Actuators - Oil & Filter - Spark Plugs - Pre CAT O2 Sensor…
Issues only just started to happen today, can’t see a blown fuse, battery light is green & 13V engine Off - 14.9V at idle.
Any ideas on what to do & where to start & should I drive it (it’s my only form of transport).
