No internal power... Help

Hi all, I wonder if some kind person could help me.

I've just come back from a week in France to find my battery is totally dead, tried to recharge it but it was having none of it. So just had new one fitted, car starts fine, however my digital clock fades in and out, internal light doesn?t work and stereo doesn?t work… seems like my internal power is dead. Car headlights work fine!

I've searched on here before posting this, but can't find anyone with the same issue that I'm suffering from. I've found the handy 'fuse' box page, but again I can't see that there is one fuse that controls all internal power, plus I can't see how this explains my fading on and off digital clock… tis odd.

Shall take it to local garage, but before I do, is there a simple answer to the problem?

Cheers in advance.

internal light doesn?t work and stereo doesn?t work.

Might share same fuze , worth a look . Clock , fully charged battery ! Disconnected it for a few minutes on re connection it may reset it .

Get your alternator output checked   :wink:

 

Ok, I must have blown a fuse while starting it, next question is? where can you buy new fuses for old Mk1 golfs?

series 2 use standard blade fuse you can get in any petrol station. s1 you will need a motor factors.

Oh yeah, you can even buy these things from Halfords lol silly me, I thought they were a VW mk1 golf only design and rare, doh. I'm so crap with cars huh.


Thanks for pointing out the obvious to me!
