Got an issue of minimal voltage reaching plugs.
Swapped over the glow timer: relay unit (mental blank on proper name..)
No change .. and donor car starts on the swapped one..
The bad one had blown the 50A maxi fuse on battery terminal.. so I thought the timer contacts may be stuck.
I have full 12volts on good car..holding stable.
Poor car flickers to 1 volt for a second before nothing.
So I suspect damaged wiring.. what else could pop a 50a fuse..and still stop power flow now
Strangely the dashboard glow signal seems uneffected (NORMAL)..
I have since changed 2 glow plugs.. but MES says 'short circuit'
So must be damaged wiring.. AFTER the glow relay box..
Any other suggestions.?
A quick look on ePER seemed to put the short wiring section...@£550 .what I paid for the donor car..!!
