    Weird no start incident

    Yesterday I was about to go home from my friends house. I turn on my car but I forgot it was in gear so it stalled. I go to turn it in and it doesn't crank, fire , or make any noise at all. I pop the hood and see nothing wrong. So I pop the truck to check my battery and notice my central locking is not working and none of my electricals are working. So I disconnected the battery and reconnected it and it fired up. I am thinking it may be a relay ? Any suggestions ?

      You do know that the E30 has a defeat so you can't crank it again without turning the key all the way off, right?

          Probably just a bad connection then. Fixed when you fiddled with the battery.

            Flux capacitor fuse. You reset it by unplugging that batt.

                Haha guess so. Either that or she was mad that I stalled her.

                  These cars throw a tantrum or two, once in awhile, don't they?

                    Congratulations! You have a self repairing sub-model of e30!

                    I, on the other hand, have a self despairing sub-model...
