So my girlfriend was out driving this evening, in our clio 05, rip curl (if the latter helps at all -_- ) when the headlights just cut out while she was driving, the engine was still running fine.
She applied brakes, which were fine, as was the steering, she pulled over, turned off the engine hoping to start up the lights again and then it wouldn't start up. Interior lighting/dashboard, indicators and hazards were all working fine as was the radio, but the dashboard reads "braking fault" as the message, the car just wouldn't start at all.
Called out AA, they sent a replacement service due to distance, replacement was useless and used a hammer and chizel as one of his methods of "testing" something. Apparently his diagnostic machine didn't do much either. So i thought while I wait to see what a garage will say tomorrow, that I'd ask and see if anyone has any ideas?
Thanks in advance.
