Hi Guys,
a Little help needed again please,
Something weird happened, we bought another vehicle and my panda stood for 3 days then I used it again, but the next day the starter was given me issues, it would not turn over, if you bump/push start it she goes fine, had a new battery installed January, and had it tested as I thought it was the problem, but the shop tests came back perfect on the test, so I removed the starter and was told it needed new brushes, which I had installed by a professional, today after reinstalling the starter it appears that the problem persists, however I checked the relay,
The problem sounds like the solenoid doesn’t even kick in, , now correct me if I’m wrong but the solenoid wire goes into a plastic standoff/ adapter thingy, before you install this plastic thing then you connect the wire from the battery and the alternator leads on the other side of the said plastic thingy?
Or did I miss something along the way, keeping in mind that the relay does click when key is turned to starting position, how else can I test for solenoid operation?
Thank you
Regards
