Toyota Corrola 1998 No Electrics
Options
Went away last Monday and my car was working fine. Returned on Sunday to find that my car had to have the battery charged overnight even then no electrics ie. no wipers, indicators, lights, temp gauge not working. Bought a new battery today and still no electrics. Anyone any idea what could be the problem?:(

I'd agree with checking you connections, it's all too easy when humphing the old battery out to miss off one of the cables.0
