Car won't start
Just get one click at the starter every time I turn the ignition.
Batteries seem to have plenty of juice.
I don't have a tester though: can't be 100% sure there's enough charge. That said the fuel pump is whining away happily, I can switch on the fresh air blower fan, the lights are bright etc.
So I got myself filthy shuffling underneath to get to give the solenoid a few hard taps with a hammer. No joy.
How hard to you need to tap though?
Then I looked at the 14pin connector. It's like brand new from the build, so connections are clean.
However when i had the panel off i noticed two wires are free/disconnected, I know you don't need everything plugged into the 14pin to run the car: does anyone have a 14pin out reference?
Annoyingly by this point the sun had gone down, i had no torch, and it was too dark to make out colours! So I don't know which these 2 wires were.
That said the car started fine last time I drove it, so instinct says these are not important wires for starter.
Any other ideas anyone?
Car is in a tight lock up, so working in there is a challenge.
I can't push car out either, as there's a ramped lip on the threshold.
Woe is me!
