Hi There,
This is my first post . Bought a 1.6 Ford Puma in Nov 2018 . Its been decent so far . However yesterday evening when i turned it on for a moment all the dashboard lights came on and suddenly everything went off similar to the feel you get when there is a electricity trips off in the house . Turning off and turning on the ignition did not change the situation. So I stepped out of the car . Locked the car using the remote key and a minute later unlocked it and tried starting . All was good and it worked well . Went on my journey and came back thinking somehow it sorted itself. However today morning when I tried starting , same issue and it refused to start . However this time i was not lucky and the trick of lock /unlocking the car via remote did not solve the trick. Infact the remote key would not work i.e unable to lock or unlock using the remote key buttons now. I had to do it manually by inserting the key .
So the situation now is that
> the Remote does not seem to work
> Car does not start . When turning ignition key nothing happens i.e no dashboard lights , no indicators .
Also additional observation , I don't see the immobiliser light flashing red.
Some more background info if it helps . We have had some bad weather over the past week though the car wasn't driven much except for some 15 minutes journeys in that week.
Any thoughts much appreciated
