Q: All dashboard gauges and icons are malfunctioning. Driver's side window is malfunctioning. Car won't crank.
My gauges and dashboard icons started malfunctioning about 2 days ago. The driver's window is also malfunctioning. I drove home just now came in for a few and went back out tried to crank the car and wouldn't start.
When the gauges started malfunctioning I figured it might be the instrument cluster, but with the window and it not cranking I'm thinking it's electrical.
My car has 189678 miles.
My car has an automatic transmission.
