My Ride: 2006 BMW 525i
Default Please Help - My Car wont start - Completely Dead

Hi Guys.. I tried starting my 06 525i today. When I switched the key to the On position.. all the lights on the instrument cluster came on.. But when i pressed the brakes and tried to start it, it woudn't crank. One more thing I noticed when I tried to start it first. The instrument cluster lights flickered and also the headlights blinked while I attempted to start it.

I pushed the vehicle to a side and hooked it up to a battery tender for about 30 minutes. I then tried starting the car after removing the battery tender. But now surprisingly, even the dash lights went off. The doors also don't lock with the remote. The headlights don't turn on. Its stone dead right now.

Please help me out. I thought it was the battery, but it now looks like some fuse has gone.

Has anyone of you had this issue before.



Thanks in advance.
