TIMMYVR 0 Posted June 2, 2006 Hello everyone, am just in the middle of fitting a new i s o lead to the jumble of wires from where the previous owner had massacred the plug! However i dont seem to be able to get switched ignition live and the wire stays at earth all the time. checked all the fuses and all are fine with continuity across them. Any ideas whether there are any more fuses hidden any where? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Niges16V 0 Posted June 2, 2006 Mine's the same so I wired it to the constant live. I think it might be one of the symptoms of a dodgy ignition switch, but that could just be me imagining it. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mbaker8v 0 Posted June 2, 2006 Yep, perfect symptom of a knackered ignition switch.... probably best to replace teh switch to be honest as you may soon have trouble getting the car started if thats the fault. No real way to test it either without replacing.... Mark Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
