Intermittent Electronic Fault

[Mustard1972]

Yesterday my galaxy (52 reg) lost power to the following:- wipers, washer bottle, heated front / rear screen buttons, and heater blowers front and rear....

 

A short while later it all came back on but today is doing it again, i have checked the fuses which seem fine but im guessing it could be the module, in order to check the connections is it anywhere accessible that i can check with minimal tools as im camping away from home....

 

Clearly if all else fails and it rains on the drive home ill have to get the RAC to recover us

 

Hoping to do a quick fix in order to sort when i get home

Check the fuse box by the battery for overheating (melting)

Cheers, have checked the whole area under the plastic shroud, no signs of any burning or overheating at all however the pink 3A fuse looked a little loose, so i pulled it out and reseated it which brought my switches back into action afterwards, also tapped the silver unit behind the battery so heres hoping your suggestion worked.....

Failed again this morning then back on after a couple of start attempts??

Have you checked your battery is fully charged Mustard? I say this as short journeys or lengthy idle periods, particularly in this finking weather, really bugger up the holding charge of the battery. Get it out and test/ fully charge it, particularly when your fault occurs, and see if it cures fault with fully charged battery. If this doesn't help, try and locate your earthing points in the bay and check for corrosion/ loose wires etc. Trouble is....there are loads and if you don't know which one your circuit uses means checking them all. Try spraying these with propriety contact cleaner...not WD40 which can cause more problems.
