??????? Need some more detail than that mate. Year? Model? What chrome sides? Sounds like a dead battery.

I had this problem every now 'n then with my Sporty..........

Was generally caused by a loose terminal on the battery.

A quick turn with a spanner and all was well again.

Good luck with it.
