Metal blocks signals. If you are putting the TomTom on the dash, and there’s still a weak signal, then there’s metals (or some impurities) in the windshield interfering with the signal.

Try having it held near the rolled down window on the passenger side.

If this helps, then you might want to find out if your model has available an external antenna!

SOURCE: Car will not turn over dead no sound

It seems as if you have had a major electrical short in a main power circuit, for this to happen.I would take it to a auto electrician and have a test carried out.

SOURCE: The windshield wipers and the

you could have a short in the ignition itself, which as the keys swing back and forth causes a stoppage in the circuit, Mercury has had that problem for years , check all fuses, and with the wipers check the relay also, as far as the lighter,, they will short out , and most car makers suggest not using them for added purposes since they tend to go bad , they were intended to heat a small wire that draws low amperage,, enough to light a cig , some plug in units require more amps and will heat up the socket , which will then short out, causing damage

The door handle doesnt work from outside

If it doesn't work from the outside, but works from the inside, then remove the inner door panel and inspect the inside of the handle mechanism. The handle has likely snapped on the inside, or it's connecting rod is no longer connected.

I have a 2000 Ford Escort. My left turn signal inside is blinking real fast. Outside it isn't working. Also, the brake light and Haz.Flasher isn't working on the outside either on the left side....

In the fuse panel with the fuses inside the car there are two big round units plugged into the fuse panel, one is your turn signal flasher one is your hazard flasher. I would start with those and move to other things if that doesn't fix it. Hope this Helps.
