I've got a '90 740 GL. Sometimes when I start the car the power accessories do not work. I assume that this is some sort of relay problem -- does anyone have any suggestions??

Thanks!

Tom:

Theres a good chance that it is your ignition switch not fully returning to the run position.The next time it happens try rotating the key very slightly counter clockwise.or just wiggle it and see if your accessories start working.If they do you have found your problem.Switches arn't too expensive but are kind of a PITA to r&r.Personally,I'd just live with it until it got way worse than "sometime".
Good Luck
