Frayed wire, bad earth ?

anyone ?

Hey again, just went out and got a multimeter, when i use the meter to conect to the green wire, and the black wire that are going onto the coil - i get 12v but if i plug them on the coil, and use the multimeter, it shows no power, like 0.01v :( i thought it could be the coil, so I got the other one i had (have 2 corrados, 1 in complete pieces heh) and tried that, it did the same thing. There is continuity of 0.02ohms on the green wire that goes to the ECU / ignition thing.

mad-dog, yeah that happened before, the wire was snapped so my brother repaired it, it worked for a while - the wires are still connected and all looks fine there :( and i am not sure if I have an immobiliser lol :( I have a falcon xl3 alarm ? :( Edit : definately getting fuel! :)

its a 1.8 KR. Correct me if i'm wrong but I was led to believe that if it was the ignition switch, the car would not turn over ? Thanks for the help though

Hi Guys, I hope somebody can help me ! My Corrado has decided to do everything - but spark lol It turns over. there is no spark form the coil - we have tested by eye after removing the ht lead to the dizzy. I have a strange feeling that my bro (while trying to solve the problem) put the wires on in the wrong places so I located a guide to put them in the correct places. but still, no spark, somebody said that relay 109 had something to do with it, got a new relay and put it in, nope! I am not an electrical genius so I dont have much of a clue on what to do next :( Please help !

ive got a clock surround mate

Found a bit of an issue, if the storks aren't completely screwed in, my fuel pump doesn't prime! (wut) so it primes but still doesn't start. I will be looking at coil and ht leads etc

no problem :)

Wow it would be amazing to see that !!

No thanks mate ! I've got some 4 studs now :(

Replaced a fuse box and no luck :(

No problem :) --- I am here: http://maps.google.com/maps?ll=54.553713,-1.361618

Its a 1.8 16v sorry I should of mentioned lol! G plate, and weve basically had the car stripped of its interior except carpet, the Dash is out lol. the undertray is off and fusebox is off the bracket making for easy access to the wires at the back, ive had a look and it doesn't look like there is water there, Ive got 2 spare fuseboxes anyway I could replace it with, but I would of thought replacing the fuses and relays would be the same thing. Ive checked my earths, before it was overheating and it looked like one earth was missing off the fusebox, connected the earth and the fan seemed to run :dance: lol the earth stopped my fan working silly me :( but other than that I think the earths look fine.

All of a sudden my Car won't start :( I got home, turned it off, (my fog light loom wasnt connected into the fusebox) and we connected it up, and since then it won't start. weve removed the fog light loom and left it like that and it doesn't start (not sure if that could have something to do with it) checked all of the fuses, replaced all of the relays with working ones that came out of my other corrado (spare, just in case) I have a feeling i might have broke something behind the fusebox, its just so fiddly though. Strange thing - When turning the ignition since, the fuel pump doesnt prime (just can't hear it) and when indicating left, the indicators won't come on, but the light on the clocks will, and it sticks, indicating right does nothing, and putting on hazards makes light illuminate but no indicators are on. Strange issue for wipers too, even when they aren't switched on, if I turn the ignition, they will move slightly, and doing anything with the stalk will make them move a tiny bit, then I will hear a strange buzzing noise from behind the clocks (not a relay on the fuse box) Does anybody have any ideas im stuck :(

do you have the ebay listing ? it will be finished now though lol, any chance you got a ny pictures ?

ive got a full set too, based up North in Stockton, depends where you are I could deliver for petrol cost :)

drivers side still available, £30 ?

say £50 for a set ?
