Need help - dead D3...
Just tried to start and move my car, got a tiny blip from the starter then all went dead... No lights on the dash or anything...
Is there a main fuse somewhere I should be looking for?
And advice gratefully received... The car us unlocked so access isn't an issue but I am at work so without tools of any kind except a screwdriver...

Solved it...
While both battery connectors were in place, taking them off and putting them back on again seems to have solved it, I'll give both them and the terminals proper clean up and make sure they are well seated when I get up. Tomorrow...
Thanks for all the help/suggestions
