Could the warning lamps not going on when key is turned be related to battery not being charged when running?
It seems I was running on battery for some time on a long journey without the battery lamp going on to show it wasn't charging.
When breakdown arrived, we found the warning dashboard lamps didn't go on when portable battery used. Or rather they sometimes did then went off again.
Fuses seem OK.
Breakdown garage left me with advice that cars are a mystery.
Mine is a 1989 260E
