  1. weirdness 19 Sep 2019 11:50 4 minutes ago, Grum With your NEW Starter Relay fitted and battery connected. DO YOU HAVE 12V AT THE TWO TEST POINTS ON THE TOP OF THE TWO MAIN FUSES? Yes or no. relay terminals yes, fuses no same as last time, removed…
  2. weirdness 19 Sep 2019 11:26 16 minutes ago, Grum M8. You're doing my head in! I'm not sure you understand the Starter Relay concept and where the Ignition Switch fits into the power circuit. Even with the supplied drawings. The Ignition Switch is…
  3. weirdness 19 Sep 2019 10:42 fitted the new one, still the same....fuck, starting to think its the ignition switch now as the hiss light doesn't even blink anymore Edited September 19, 2019 by 71Rob additional txt
  4. weirdness 19 Sep 2019 10:31 Grum, 9/18/2019 at 10:52 AM Here's a graphic of the relay. You can see there is just a link to the fuses off the Red/ Yellow wire(the main lead coming from Battery Positive). This is what you seem to be missing. Try…
  5. weirdness 18 Sep 2019 09:43 19 minutes ago, Grum Ok, forget the Ignition Switch your problem is at the Starter Relay. Disconnect a lead from your battery. Now lift up the Starter Relay, make sure all connections are good and the main positive…
  6. weirdness 18 Sep 2019 08:57 1 hour ago, Grum Yes checking the 12v at the Clock/Haz Fuse is with Ignition OFF. It's a permanently powered supply not through the Ignition Switch! progress, checked the previous 2 mentioned fuses with ignition on and…
  7. weirdness 18 Sep 2019 06:57 8 hours ago, Grum When I mentioned the Clock/Haz Fuse It was to measure the Voltage at the fuse. All the fuses have tiny exposed metering points on the top of them allowing you to probe the voltage Both sides of the…
  8. weirdness 17 Sep 2019 22:14 28 minutes ago, Grum Sorry, thought you said Grounds are "all tight as a duck arse and nothing broken". The 8gen Ignition Switch is a simple one, just a single pole On/Off, it may just be the wiring or connections to…
  9. weirdness 17 Sep 2019 21:28 2 minutes ago, GreginDenver Check the wiring harness ground point (usually to engine somewhere), partial or complete loss of path-to-ground can cause weirdness. will do that again, just to make sure
  10. weirdness 17 Sep 2019 21:26 7 minutes ago, Grum Ok well that's a surprise, you were probably not far off needing a new battery anyhow. Why do you say " not sure where to go or what to do now"????? Suggestions have been made as to what to check!…
  11. weirdness 17 Sep 2019 18:46 new battery didn't cure anything
  12. weirdness 17 Sep 2019 18:42 Well the battery didn't take a shit after all, not really sure where to go or what to do now
  13. weirdness 17 Sep 2019 10:36 tested the two main fuses and the clock fuse for continuity and all are good, I'm really hoping that the battery has decided to take a shit
  14. weirdness 17 Sep 2019 07:14 1 minute ago, Grum Keep us posted on how you go PLEASE. will do buddy
  15. What is your oil? 16 Sep 2019 18:12 i use Castrol power 1, a 10/40 4t, and change every 6 months regardless of mileage, which is usually a lot as i do a 60 round trip commute 5 days a week
