Sounds like you may have a bad earth check the earth lead on the battery terminal then follow it down to inner wing 13mm spanner required loosen clean then copper grease also clean battery terminals & copper grease.
there is another one if you go in the n/s wheel arch wheel off the is an earth strap bolted on the under side across to gear box again take off clean with emery then copper grease.
Hope this helps.
