a good vehicle maintenance course will teach you about 'calibrated thumps'...... these are essential for most electrical parts


I have just had to resort to 'legitimate wrenching' to remove a flat tyre on the van.... alloy welded to steel (should have put some copperslip on the back... but I was on a back road, it's raining... so I'll be kicking that whhel off too .......... or maybe I'll take the wheel off soon, just to put some on )

Get yourself to the bash in June, I think there's going to be a maintenance course run there

The whole thing is all frazzled and brittle. Looks like I am going down to Halfrauds and get some new connectorss!! Hopefully that will sort the problem. I had the same problem a few months ago . Took it to a garage in Truro and got charged £40.00. I know for sure this wire was not there before.

I went down to Halfrauds today.

Spent 8 quid on connectors.
Connected this

Hey presto turned the key on the ignition [-o and she starts

Thanks again for all advice , I could have not done it with out you Guys and Gals

Well done for sorting the problem. Can I suggest that you make a soldered weatherproofed connection rather than scotchlocks. They corrode hideously along with the cable that you've connected and you may find in the future you'll be back to square one! SCOTCHLOCKS ARE EVIL
