JC Posted July 30, 2012 Author Share Posted July 30, 2012 After trips to the auto electrician and Matt's help the nasty electrical issues seemed to have gone away... for good i hope! (New alternator and connectors) Have some time off next week so treated it to some new cleaning products and going to give it a decent clean and look at the under seal!

Naylor2006 Posted July 31, 2012 Share Posted July 31, 2012 Didn't start, battery not charging, loose of electrics... Oh I see, a rather cut and dry situation. I always take an interest in people's electrical problems and their fixes as they can be hardest to diagnose and sort, just incase I get simular issues. Glad it's starting again!

That sounds a good time to do a RR run with each ecu, you will have a instant answer which works best?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
