YES!


Most likely any serious electrical issues on our cars starts with a weakening battery.

Usualy the spoiler fin goes up without reason. Or the fans do weird things.


The batts in these cars are notorious for going suddenly bad. If you is an original, it is most certainly beyond it's expected life cycle. And therefore suspect.And once they go flat, they never seem to be right again.



On the other hand, you could just have a bad switch on your bulkhead. try jiggling it as the same symptoms would reveal that little annoyance.
