Well folks it is time to move on to my 960. Now I live in Brisbane Australia
and it is a hot dry summer here at the moment. The days are usually in the
mid 30's deg C.

The problem is when I leave the car in the heat of the day and drive the car
at say 11 am, the windows and the blinkers don't work. If I drive it for
awhile then stop and restart the car they work.

Any idea which bit is getting affected by the heat?

Thanks for your help

I'd start by checking the fuse box and the relays, could be a loose
connection that the heat is expanding.

my 960 does the same thing in Texas HOT I found out the ing, switch
wasnt returning all the way after starting
just turn it slightley back from start to run. It is like there is a
dead spot in there that doesnt make contact with the assories.
