How healthy is your battery? The reason I ask is when I got mine, the heated screen wasn't working, shortly afterwards the battery gave up the ghost. New battery and everything works. This time of year the electrical draw is as high as it's going to get with heated seats, screens, heater on full, lights on etc, and from what I understand, the car will decide it can't power everything so doesn't. |

I think (hope) the battery is OK. Its just had to have a new alternator. I reckon I may just buy a new battery soon anyway.

This car is not going to plan.. Ive also noticed that the passenger side Air vents only push out cold air while the driver side is nice a nd and warm.

Thanks for that link. Low and behold the connection under the spoiler was all corroded so I cut it out and reconnected the wires.

My left front demister failed and thanks to another forum member, I checked the big J fuses in the Engine bay fuse box and sure enough, it was blown. Apparently it’s a known issue and a replacement of another design is recommended. My original had 2 fuseable links whereas the replacement was one heavier gauge link. Works fine now. 2019 5.0 SC SVA (Current)
