Default No power to starter

Everything was fine then I bumped the kurbstone at some speed catching both front and back wheels.

The car continued to run, but the wipers stopped straight away. When I turned the ignition off I found that the starter motor did not work either.

So .... some electical circuits do work - full-beam for example, but the other circuits do not. I have visibly checked all of the 'small' fuses in both fuse boxes, and all appear fine.

Dont work - Starter, wipers, washer, blower, head-lights,

Do work - full beam, radio, central locking, internal lights, side lights, fog-lights, full-beam, lights-on alarm, horn, windows.

Anyone got any ideas?

If you hit the kerb that hard then check the relays also. My money would be on a dislodged ground cable, so worth checking those too.

Hope this helps,

Many thanks for your advice Jim.
I have a mobile mechanic coming today to look at it, and I will pass on your suggestion.
Will let you know how I got on.

Cheers!
Chris
