Porsche 968 electrical conundrum

[Camry_Man]

Ladies and Gentlemen,
Looking for any assistance here.
Until 5 minutes ago my 968 was dead. Inserting the key into the ignition and attempting to start the car brought up absolutely no lights on the dashboard at all - nothing, nor any clicking electrical type noises coming from anywhere.
I pulled a couple of fuses to check them - only 30 amp fuses, no real idea of what I was doing and low and behold the car now starts. No problems at all.
Any ideas?
Cheers,
Stu

Sorry - meant to post this in the Front Engined Thread....

Corrosion is your most likely enemy. Clean off all contacts in the fuse board, & maybe replace the fuses. Had this with a 944 fuel pump years ago, no power to the pump on morning - a little cleaning of the connections on the fuse board and a replacement fuse (not blown, just corroded), all was well. It also struck the air flow meter on the same 944, leading to massive over-fueling at idle. A little light cleaning and all was well again.

Thanks. Will give that a go.
