Chris Bb Posted April 11, 2011 Report Share Posted April 11, 2011 Got back from a long run yesterday, everything tickety-boo. Two hours later went to start up again and it wouldn't. Ignition on, OK; pre-heater on, OK; key to start position and a red light (Brake(!)) comes on on the dash and no starter motor, just the sound of a relay cutting in. Any ideas?

Chris Bb Posted April 11, 2011 Author Report Share Posted April 11, 2011 Well, RAC came around and fixed in in ten seconds. A wire (exciter) had fallen off the starter motor, the brake light on the dash was part of the self test on start up and entirely co-incidental. Hey ho, easy when you know how!
