My first thought is that your generator was not charging your battery and
you ran it down while driving to the store. If so, you have either a
voltage regulator or generator problem.

Lusters,
Im on the side of the road in my 55 BN1. I turned off the engine to go into
a store. When I came back to turn on the ignition there was a single click
from the starter (or solenoid, not sure) and then nothing. I noticed that
the fuel guage goes to empty and the horn does not work. Checked both fuses
and they are good. If I turn off the battery switch in the boot and then
turn it on again, the horn works again and if I turn the key the fuel guage
comes back up to half (which is correct). If I press the start button, I
hear the click and the fuel guage goes back to empty and horn does not work.
Turning the battery switch off then on resets everything. The engine had
just come up to operating temp so I dont suspect heat is an issue. Ideas?
