My advice is, take off the fuse box (2 screws, a bolt, a positive wire and 7 plugs) clean all the connections and re-assemble). 20 minute job. If someone had given me that advice on New Years Day it would have saved me £400 in garage bills and car hire. I hope it works for you. Good luck.
I'll second Robert's advice here, and further more have a look HERE because the symptoms you describe fit the fault finding process you will find in the link.

Best of luck
