Question accessories not working @ ignition

Hi all been reading the forums for a while and found it very useful, epically the thread with the break light switch.

I have a prob which only happened this weekend.
my accessories don't work @ ignition,
I have an EF and the power windows aircon, radio, wipers work when the key is at the accessories position but once you turn it on (the engine) none of these things work. It still drives fine but I don't want to be driving around with out wipers, epically in Melbourne.

HELP!


Thanks

may just be the Body control module located behind the dash? A quick trip to the Auto electrician should get you fixed fairly easy. They are not a cheap item but you may be able to get a reco unit?

Picked up the car today.

Auto elect told me it was the ignition switch and lock mechanism not failing over. He had to replace that and re program the smartlock. He gave me the old parts.
Its working fine now.

thanks for all your help
