I thought it was some faulty ground connection or a relay under the dash but all connections seems okay. The problem got progressively worse NOW THE CAR WON'T START!!

I've checked all fuses in the engine bay and under the driver's dash, all okay. When the ignition swithch (IS) is in "Accessories" the radio and horn works. The dash lights and headlights DO NOT work when IS in "On" posi. The starter motor and engine turns over when IS moved to next position but car will not start.

I'm thinking either the Laserline alarm/immobiliser or ignition switch is faulty...any suggestion on how to check. What other problem it could be? Car has Autronics ECU, can this be faulty?

ALSO, which mobile auto electrician would be recommended for Ossy park area... frustration is taking hold!!!
