strange electrical problem?
my car was hit in the front few weeks ago - light broken, fender smashed, etc. Just got it back from the body shop - heres the thing. The dash light doesnt come on when the lights are on, the visor/mirror lights dont come on, the nav doesn't dim, its as if the car doesnt realise the lights are on. Also, when the keys are out of the ignition, the door locks dont work, you have to manually push the lock down, which also means the remote doesnt work, i need to use the key to get in the car. I thought maybe a fuse, but it doesn't look like all of these things would be on the same fuse. Any idea before i bring it back to the body shop?? I dont have time to do that for another week or 2. Thanks!!

haha well there goes my theory, I was gonna say maybe if it got hit o the driver's side that the wires running from the battery got messed up somehow but now Im as stumped as you
