I'm amazed it's turning over, charge the battery.
And welcome to the group!
And welcome to the group!
Oh right, I'll stand down then, I have no idea, good luck.
It’s fully charged
And thanks
Lol thanks for ya help anyway i think
Being fully charged is one thing, how the battery performs under load is another.
What's the readings on the multimeter whilst being cranked?
If you don't have a multimeter, its handy to have one. The absolute cheapest will do.
For the fault itself, the first thing I'd check is the battery and battery connections. A battery can sometimes have enough power to crank the engine but still have low voltage or poor connections that cause multiple electrical systems to fail. Also check:
The combination of no windows, no central locking, and no lights suggests a power supply, fuse, earth, or body control module issue rather than a fuel problem. If you can post the battery voltage and whether the dashboard lights up normally when the ignition is turned on, that would help narrow it down.
- Main battery terminals for corrosion or looseness
- Main fuses/fusible links on top of the battery
- Earth (ground) straps between the battery, body, and engine
- Voltage at the battery (should be around 12.6V with the engine off)

You're in a much better position now.
How did you get it going?
I don't think locks are known to fail. However, have you put any insulation in the doors?
The previous owner put Rockwool in mine and it played havoc with the latch mechanism.
