    P38 insane computer

    On Wednesday night we had a huge electrical and thunder storm, green wheely bin lid was blown open and it was about a third filled with water.

    Anyway, I checked the P38 which was parked in the open.
    The windows were down, the sunroof was open, fuel refill hatch thingy was unlocked, mould covering everything leather inside and the battery was flat.

    I recharged and fitted the battery and when I did everything went haywire, alarm went off, windows started to move, wipers working and then it sort of slowed down and started to click and then died.

    I think the electrical storm had the right frequency to send the computer mental and stuff it.

    Does that sound right ?

    Ta.

    No the car was locked up tight.
    I should have disconnected the battery.

    When I hooked up the recharged battery it all went off as I described.

    Turning the ignition on had no effect, dash was dead so I cant hook up my Nanocom to check and clear.

    God knows what it would cost to replace the computer thingy.

    Water damage, insurance claim?
    If you don't like trucks, stop buying stuff.
