Default No headlights/foglights, power windows, heat/ac......

Posted last night regarding no headlights/foglights on my '93 90cs. Now my power windows, turn signals, and heat/ac controls don't work. They probably did not work last night, but I didn't notice. Radio is ok, instrument panel working, as does the cruise control. Any ideas?

Thanks,

Mike

Ignition switch? On the A4, which has a sticky ign. switch, when you go to start the car it won't always return the key to the run position from the start position. It'll allow the starter to work properly, as well as the gauges and parking lamps, but thats about it. No radio, no HVAC, no headlamps/fogs, etc.

Default My ignition switch, which caused me to lose power on everything else.

With a LOT of help from everyone on this board, I was able to accomplish my first repair on my car.

And, um, you CAN call me Goddess if you want. I won't mind.

Default Ignition switch cracked...

You'll just need to replace the ignition switch. Temporarily, I was able to just turn the key back (out of the ignition position) after the car had started to get all of my accessory power back.
