Dash lights and roof not working.

Hi all

I found this site when trying to find the fix to my problem.

My battery went dead, I jumped it from the front terminal and an earth and since then I’ve had issues.

although the indicators, hazards and lights work, the lights don’t show up on the dashboard confirming this nor so I get the clicking sound.

My radio also reads disabled and my roof doesn’t work.

is it all linked or a series of issues?

I’ve now replace the battery and still no fix. I found a bcm online (same number) and the issue is exactly the same.

I’ve tried running the car and doing the roof reset I.e put windows up and down and etc as recommended on here but no luck.

I’ve checked all the fuses and they appear fine.

Does anyone have an idea?

I did.

Turns out its was the radio, there's a black plug that connect to another wire, I disconnected the radio, unplugged that cable and it all worked again.

Excellent, I couldn't believe it when it worked. I haven't put a radio in it yet and my wife is moaning at me to do it.

Personally, I was going to just bypass it all and put a new radio in that had mp3 and bluetooth. I also need to get a new bonnet scoop and it put mine on, forgot to bolt it up and it blew off in the wind.
