hi just got a free seicento sporting,broom yellow.
was taken off the road 15mths ago due to starting issue.
sometimes it will start and away you go,other times il get a buzzing "relay sound" from inside fuse box.
and a good bit of clacking realy sound from a large relay pack,just beside ecu in engine bay. sounds like there just switching on and off with in split seconds.
a few taps and they stop,you can then turn the key to start it,again it may start or it might just start clicking madly again???
ive put in a known working relay pack,same problem.
i think its a bad earth somewhere,either ignition switch area or a body earth somewhere under dash etc.
main earth to chassis is clean and tight.
battery light just glows dimly,doesnt get brighter at night with all lights and heater on,battery is charging fine.
so where do i look next,and where do i find the smaller body earths?
great little car in good condition with no rust.
many thanks in advance
