Re: starter motor issues

Ah never thought about the x relay killing the lights etc.nothing wrong with the starter as I remove the live feed to energise the starter and energise it with a 12v feed and it activates perfectly so I figure a fault with the wire from fuse box back so will get a meter onn and trace it.
Thanks all
