V8 Starting
« on: March 02, 2007, 18:12:13 »
Went to start my V8 earlier and nothing at all happened.

The battery light dims slightly when you turn the key to start position but that's about it.  

I can't hear the relay clicking either but cant recall ever having heard it in the 110.

Where should I start in the morning!

Battery and starter for starters. It may need percussive engineering. (ie tw*t it with a hammer  :lol:  )

O don't know about yours but the RRC has a starter relay.  I've had one stick open before now.  COuld also be a flat battery though.

Sorted with the help of a little impact maintenance.

Thanks all.
