Re: [doc] Electrics.... ignition!



Peeps,

Electics solved. Bad wiring and a misplaced plug.

But my wiper unit is now shot (melted, blown...). Anything UK I can use?

Cheers, (and thanks Martin!)

PS - Just been contacted from someone in the US telling me my car has "substantially more miles on than recorded".. well there you go.. (the speedo cable broke years ago!)

The ignition needs a supply to be able to switch it.... I reckon the supply side is duff. I suggest un-plugging the igntiion
barrel's connection and just test all the pins to see if you have a 12v feed on at least one of them.


The Rover SDi ignition barrel will fit but is slightly different and requires a little bit of rewiring. Paul and I both got
one from www.rimmerbros.co.uk (the one I got went to Rob Grady)
