car is ok
well out of all things you could think of, as I was loading it onto a trailer I noticed water dripping from the front LHS I didn't take note I towed the car to a guy that was recommended to me by a friend I towed the car about 350km and when I got there we checked all fuses and all was ok then I recommended to check where the leak was coming from we removed the battery to find a pool of water blocked and to our surprise wiring was damaged some of the wiring was rotten the guy did his thing quick fix and the car started so now I have to buy wiring and all will be ok and I might sell the car unfortunately thank you guys hope tis will be helpful to others
