Urgent! Car wont start Electrical Problems

[chrisjames]

I am in trouble here guys.

I have been cleaning up my bay and I put a resistor on the plug for the evap valve so I could delete the charchol canister. Now my car wont start. I have returned all electrics to stock.

On ignition almost all warning lights come on and there is a loud clicking from the fuse box. Next click and the starter motor moves once and everything goes of lights etc and engine and starter goes dead.

What has happened, have I blown a fuse or done something worse?

Any help appriciated guys.

I have a few ideas up my sleve as to what may have caused this and will try to sort this tomorow.

I am no sparkie only a mechanic. Thats the problem

Your battery is flat chris - are the clocks going out aswell when you turn the key? if so its definately flat.

ha ha thanks Alex. I did find out that it was partly the problem (car not starting doh) but I seem to have given the car some errors and lights on the dash but nothing I cant sort with VAGCOM.

Next time I am in Poole I am going to try and get along to a TidyVag Meet. Its my round mate
